Description
No marks or inscriptions. Tiny creases to cover corners, none to spine. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards, slight foxing and no bumping to corners. 240pp. The torpedoing of the City of Benares in the Atlantic was a war crime, carrying as it was evacuee children to Canada. The author has examined what really happened behind the scenes at the Admiralty and the the Ministry of Shiiping and the result is harrowing. Photographic illustrations.
