Simply gripping!" -- Captain Bill Oliphant RN, CEO Royal Naval Association "a crackling, impressively researched account... At times, The Convoy reads like a novel... [a] detailed book..." -- Washington Independent Review of Books "Angus combines the story of the technical and tactical developments that won the Battle of the Atlantic for the Allies, along with a narrative that reveals both the terror and stubborn determination that defined the experiences of those who served on convoy duties. Highly recommended, every word so." -- ARGunners
