Description
Escorting ships to war was a crucial part of Canada's involvement in World War II, and the Corvette Navy helped the Royal Canadian Navy in its destruction of 47 U-boats and two Italian submarines. James Lamb was there, and he brings all the action back -- the fighting, the fear, the loneliness, and the camaraderie born of the intense stress that only war can bring.
