Disgraced Lieutenant Seagram has to take his battered old tug right on to the beach at Sword on D-Day. His task is to mask the first British landings and prevent the first wave of infantry from being massacred. It's a do-or-die mission, but Seagram is determined to carry it out and reclaim the old tug's honour . . . and his own.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Short, but a good easy read,
By
This review is from: Ramps Down, Troops Away! (Hardcover)
This is a really short little novel at only a couple of hundred pages, but overall its a good little read and short enough so that I can overlook the obvious gaps and flaws in the storyline.
The first 3rd of a book is virtually dedicated to character development, and so it does surprisingly well in generating a bit of empathy with the main character. Would be an excellent book to polish off on a long haul airplane flight!
