5-0 out of 5 stars The Original 007
A stroke of luck for myself to find this gem, picked it up off a bench in the airport. Once I started reading, I could not put this book down.An amazing story about the original 007, if you are lucky enough to find this book, give it a read.

5-0 out of 5 stars James Bond stand aside
This excellent read takes you on a journey that is absolutely amazing.My book was a Panther edition (reprinted twice in 1977).It has sat unread and unobserved on my shelf for years.What a surprise when I got around to it.Why a film has not been made as a period piece sticking to the earthy excitement of this book I do not know.A pearl waiting to be found and polished.

5-0 out of 5 stars James Bond is a tamed down version of Merlin Minshall
This has to been one of the best books I've read this year (1999).I spend two years looking for this book and it was worth the wait.

Ignoring the amazing historic information and the fantastic true tales - this bookis awsume.

Merlin Minshall is Indiana Jone, James Bond and Peter Sellers(and many more), rolled into one.

It contains over 50 B&W photographsof his life and the second World War.

It'll make my "must readlist" every time. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Foreword by Len Deighton. This spirited oral history covers some of the most significant sea battles and naval operations of World War II through the eyes of British and American B- and C-Class destroyer veterans. Their recollections of the evacuations of Dunkirk and Boulogne; clashes with the Scharnhorst, Gneisenau, and Prince Eugen; and the D-Day counter-attack are coupled with thoughts on the strain of convoy escort duty and dreary monotony of life aboard a bouncing "tin can." Arranged in chronological order, the author seamlessly weaves the firsthand accounts together with book excerpts, news articles, and speeches to create a solid record of the destroyer force in action. As Len Deighton writes in the foreword, "No one will read this book without being deeply moved and inspired." ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Essential for Naval Warfare Readers
What historian Ian Hawkins has done previously for the air war, he has now done for the war on the Atlantic--put together a first-rate collection of eye-witness accounts by the men who fought and risked their lives on the Atlantic in the Second World War.Mr. Hawkins is known for his riveting use of eyewitnesses to put together books that bring the Second World War to life.His greatest book, in my opinion, "Munster: Before and After", follows the Eighth Air Force on one raid to Munster, Germany.In that book, he tells the story not just from the point of view of the men in the heavy bombers, but also went to great lengths to interview Germans who lived through the attack on the ground. Mr. Hawkins brings the same kind of meticulous research and interviewing skill to his newest book.I found the new book fascinating in the insights it gives into the destroyer war.It is obvious this was a labor of love for Hawkins, whose father was lost on a destroyer during the war.First-person history has become a common and highly effective way to tell history.Ambrose did it, so did Cornelius Ryan and Gerald Astor.It gives the reader a personalized view of the great events.I believe the previous reviewer failed to grasp the concept of the importance of first-person narrative, and that is unfortunate.Mr. Hawkins does an excellent job of tying the stories together with text on the historical background. He covers the war chronologically, from its first desperate hours, to the horrifying early years when German U-Boats ruled the high seas, right through to the end. Anyone who reads this book for what it is, a painstakingly gleaned collection of eyewitness narratives on every aspect of the destroyer war, will not be disappointed.I recommend it highly.

3-0 out of 5 stars An anthology is a scrapbook
by another name. Redundancy makes for tedium in this book. Far from being "a book which matches and complements that bestseller of the postwar years, The Cruel Sea," as the usually meticulous Len Deighton claims, the book rises to that level only when selections from that book are presented. The stories are interesting, mostly. They demonstrate, again, that England, not the United States, won the battle of the Atlantic, and they show how brave men suffered. But the book's strategy, following the career of one class of destroyers, limits its scope and pool of potential readers. Also ideosyncratic are its appendices--nautical terms, histories for ships mentioned, and obituaries of key figures. But these are welcome; I could do without verses, though, as none can be confused with poetry. It's well that the profits from the book sale will be used to restore "the sole remaining Second World War British destroyer." ... Read more
