Telling the tales of the fate of the victims, the disastrous mistakes made by ships, captains and navigators, the impossible conditions faced at sea, the courage of those who survived and the attempts to raise what now lies at the bottom of the sea.
A fascinating read for anyone interested in the war, the sea, or men under conditions of trial and stress. With much detail of life aboard HM Ships at this time, the conditions the officers of these days lived and fought under, very different from the present day.
