The Speedwell Voyage

by Poolman, Kenneth

Kenneth Poolman, a World War II veteran of the Royal Navy, served on a light carrier, a minesweeper, and a destroyer. When he returned to civilian life he attended Cambridge University and eventually worked for the BBC as a writer and producer of documentaries for radio and as a script editor for television. A resident of Surrey, England, he has published 24 books, mostly on sea-air warfare in World War II, including The Winning Edge: Naval Technology in Action, 1939-1945, HMS Kelly, Scourge of the Atlantic, and The Sea Hunters.
