Tucker and Hms Lion [EPUB ebook] 
The Exploits of Lieutenant Reginald Tucker in the Grand Fleet

Stöd

HMS Lion was the most famous battle cruiser of the British Grand Fleet in World War I with its shattering long-range guns. Join her young officers for a drink in the wardroom as they wonder whether the German High Seas Fleet will ever come to meet them. Meet the Russian Tsar in St Petersburg and witness the first major clash of German and British ships in the North Sea. Tucker and HMS Lion brings the events of 100 years ago as close as yesterdays headlines. At the heart of the story – which also includes an aerial dog-fight – is a daring plan to bring the war to an end.

Om författaren

A published writer and journalist, the author has worked for Time Magazine in New York City and for the Times of London. His research into the Grand Fleet began when he made a documentary about the survivors of the Battle of Jutland. A number of the men he interviewed served aboard the battle cruisers, designed as fast scouts for the main fleet. Cleared for action, the men faced the dangers of shellfire and drowning with dogged determination. Afterwards, the split-second decisions and tensions of battle could always be relieved by sharing drinks and laughter in the wardroom.
