Descrizione
8vo., First Edition, with 101 plates on 24, and full-page illustrations, full-page chart and double-page map in the text; blue cloth, gilt back, a near fine copy in unclipped dustwrapper. HMS Jervis served continuously from the outbreak of WWII to the cessation of hostilities in Europe. As leader, successively, of 7th and 14th flotillas she was awarded no fewer than thirteen battle honours, a record shared by only two other ships of the fleet. Connell concentrates on her time as leader of the 14th Flotilla, mainly in the Mediterranean, using much first-person material and a wealth of well-chosen photographs (many from previously unpublished personal collections). Several useful appendixes. Law 1046.
