When the Corvette Uruguay Was Dismasted is an English-language translation of a rare publication, Cuando la Corbeta Uruguay Quedo Desarbolada (Buenos Aires: 1946), that brought the controversy to light, together with an historical introduction and appendices containing the relevant, original Spanish and Swedish materials.…
