"Here is a book which not oly tells the tale of one man's experiences of the Royal Navy as he saw it, but which aslo faithfull records the essence and spirit of the Service as it was at that time. Based during a periord of relative peace during the 1950's, it is a window in the world of a booming post-war Britain and her colonies, at a time when a new "cold war" was developing rapidly in the east. It is unique in that this is the first book to record the activities of the National Serviceman afloat, giving an honest appraisal of what he thought of ther Service and how he related to it."
