I have never yet read a war novel that gives you the real freeling of
having
been there. Not one.If the pages don't smell of cordite and hydraulic
fluid,
then it ain't real.


The Cruel Sea was widely admired by those who served in
the battle of the atlantic, but then the author was one of them.

I actually have a medal and ribbon for the Battle of the Atlantic. For me it
wasn't much of a battle. I crossed on the Queen Mary At one point it was
reported that we were being tracked by a submarine and that old queen really
flew. But we made it into the Furth of Forth ok.
