This book is the real story of the escorts, convoys and anti-submarine ships which protected merchant vessels and kept supplies moving across the Atlantic. It is based on personal reminiscences and first-hand accounts. The author himself served on HMS Lulworth, one of the ex-American Coast Guard Cutters assigned to the Royal Navy under the Lease Lend agreement. This is a well -written, moving and very human account of heroism and unremitting toil in the Battle of the Atlantic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military History Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67671889117483,"sku":"18474","price":4.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/1289\/5019\/files\/the-atlantic-star-1939-45-by-david-thomas-1990-first-edition-hardback_18474_main_original.jpg?v=1791257599","url":"https:\/\/militaryhistorybooks.com\/products\/the-atlantic-star-1939-45-by-david-thomas-1990-first-edition-hardback","provider":"Military History Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
