This is a World War II memoir from the lower deck of the Royal Navy - a story of the ordinary sailor and the perils that he endured in appalling conditions. The author served the best part of a working life in the Navy. From the North Atlantic (including the Russian convoys) to the South Atlantic, the Mediterranean, the Far East and the Pacific, he served in many different types of ship - landing craft (from the beaches of North Africa to Sicily, Messina, Salerno, Anzio and D-Day in Normandy), destroyers, frigates, corvettes and aircraft carriers.

hardcover. Etat : Very Good. My Darling Children: War from the Lower Deck by Williams Griffiths is a vivid, personal account of naval life told from the perspective of an ordinary seaman rather than an officer. Through letters, diary-style reflections, and first-hand recollections, Griffiths captures the danger, monotony, humour, and camaraderie of serving at sea during wartime, offering an unvarnished view of what the lower deck endured. The narrative brings to life the human cost of conflictâ"family separation, fear, resilience, and the small moments that kept morale aliveâ"making it a valuable piece of social and naval history. A compelling choice for collectors of maritime memoirs and wartime personal narratives. N° de réf. du vendeur mon0001644377
