Christopher Johnson, 1953. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 5.75 X 8.75. H/B 208 pages, condition is very good, some foxing to the pages. A gift label to the flyleaf. Commander Campbell's account of the Merchant Navy's exploits in the recent war brings the clamour, the distress and the excitement of battle at sea echoing about our ears. The famous broadcaster, in his transcripts he has made of the stories of the participants of the most notable happenings of the war in which merchant ships played their heroic part, brings to life the perils which our merchant seamen underwent in the course of keeping open the lifelines of our nation in its life-and-death struggle. The Malta and Russian convoys, Dunkirk, the saga of the Jervis Bay, the story of the GrafSpee, and other lesser-known stories of the war at sea find their place in this collection. There is a Foreword by Lord Mount-evans ("Evans of the Broke").
