5. Shadow Voyage
On the sweltering evening of 30 August 1939, on the eve of World War II, Bremen slipped her moorings on Manhattan’s west side, abandoned all caution (including foghorns, radar and running lights), and sailed out of New York harbor, beginning a dramatic escape run that would challenge the rules for unrestricted warfare at sea. Written by naval historian Peter Huchthausen, “Shadow Voyage” tells the epic adventure of Bremen’s extraordinary flight to Germany, which became a life-and-death race with British warships and submarines intent on intercepting her.
