Post by: Martin_1962 on 15 August 2006, 22:46:51
Bought it on holiday at Culdrose cafe - a nice little cafe next to the NAS not far from Helston.

This is a very good book, I have read excerpts on the internet.

It is also scarey - we could easily have lost the war due to incompetence. As it was we lost a couple of ships which we didn't need to!

It has always been a wonder to me why old generals are so ready to sacrifice young mens lives

You dont need to throw it away......just carefully place it in the loft......wrapped in a bin bag.....you never know it might become an antique...in a couple of years  ;D
