About This Book

Two young crew members serve aboard Allied destroyers and take part in a sequence of sea operations that range from convoy duty and night patrols to daring raids and full-scale fleet engagements. The plot follows shipboard life and technical detail in the engine and deck rooms, episodes of rescue and pursuit, direct confrontations with enemy submarines, and the capture and destruction of hostile vessels. Action builds through escalating engagements to the enemy fleet's surrender, after which the protagonists return home. The book blends nautical routine, tactical maneuvering, and tense small-ship combat to portray naval warfare from the viewpoint of hands-on participants.
