Description
Nicholas Monsarrat is unquestionably the finest writer on the war at sea to emerge from the dark years of 1939-45. The Cruel Sea established his world-wide reputation as a novelist, but he had already made a name for himself with three short books, written during the war, describing life aboard the corvettes in which he served in the Battle of the Atlantic. This volume contains all his writings on the sea, with the exception of The Cruel Sea itself. It will be treasured by all who have a touch of salt in their blood and will introduce to a new generation some of the most dramatic literature of the sea ever written.
