From Baird Maritime:
A delightful, but ultimately tragic, account of the final years of the short but busy and very exciting life of a young British naval officer.
His diaries, letters and journal cover the years 1910 to 1916 when the author was killed in the Battle of Jutland at age 19.
As well as personal, family and social matters, the book records his naval training and his wartime experiences as a midshipman.
A wonderful and very human record that is, at the same time, very sad.
