About this ebook
Written two years after the First World War, it is the story of the contribution which British seamen made for the prosperity and well-being of the world, a story that was never accounted for before. This is a tale of a merchant fleet of the day. The work aims to describe the height of technological achievement in marines of the time and the civilians who operated them, without whom the war could not have been fought in any way. These men worked in situations of negligence and difficulty that would terrify the modern reader.
This thought-provoking work makes the reader consider that even though all these events happened a long time ago, one needs to remember the people who were a part of such brave acts and made this happen.
