Editorial Reviews

Review

"Enthralling.... Masterly...The resulting re-creation of life and times in the great Battle of the Atlantic... is stunningly authentic." -The Toronto Star

"A readable, fast-paced naval thriller successfully blending historical fiction with real events." -The Globe and Mail

"The book convincingly captures the frustrations, horrors -- and rare pleasures -- of Atlantic warfare. Painstaking research is evident in its depictions of life aboard the two vastly different vessels." -Maclean's

"Deftly blends serious history with exciting prose.... A genuine contribution to our understanding of the Battle of the Atlantic and an exciting read -- a model popular history, sound, scholarly, and serious in aim." -L. Granatstein, Quill and Quire

"Factually solid, humanly powerful, and grippingly written, this is a strong and valuable addition to the many volumes on Second World War naval history." -The Hamilton Spectator
