DESTROYER FROM AMERICA by John Fernald

DESTROYER FROM AMERICA

By

Pub Date: Jan. 12th, 1943
Publisher: Macmillan

A fictionized account of the voyage of one destroyer taken over by the British, and a vivid picture of what these men of the navy experience. There are cross sections of the life, of conversations in wardroom, among officers, and petty officers; there are varied problems, large and small. And after dreary hours of boredom, there is action. He makes it exciting, absorbing reading.
