Set against the backdrop of World War II, the narrative recounts the perilous experiences of a merchant seaman during the Battle of the Atlantic. With Britain vulnerable after Dunkirk and facing relentless attacks from Nazi U-boats, the civilian Merchant Navy became crucial for survival. The author, drawing from his wartime diary preserved at the Imperial War Museum, offers a firsthand perspective on the harsh realities faced by merchant seamen, their vital role in sustaining Britain, and the constant threat of the Kriegsmarine.
