Hello,
I'm very interested in history of the German battleship Tirpitz, and was thinking about getting a book on the subject. I came across two books - one of them is the 2009 Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Super Battleship - the other is the 2018 Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Great Battleship.
It is my understanding that Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Great Battleship is a revised edition of Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Super Battleship (at least the certain passages in a limited preview that I saw of both books had parts that were identical to each other), but what exactly is different about them? Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Super Battleship is 360 pages while
Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Great Battleship is 336, so there clearly are some differences.
Could someone who owns copies of both books help me out.
Tirpitz: The Life and Death of Germany's Last Super Battleship vs (same title save for the last words) Great Battleship

I can't help with those books I'm afraid but if you don't have this series of books then they are worth getting:

And Target Tirpitz by Patrick Bishop covers all the British attacks against the battleship.
