Excerpt from The Fleets Behind the Fleet, the Work of the Merchant Seamen and Fishermen, in the War
Needless to say, many of the most interesting exploits of our merchant sailors and fishermen must for the present remain behind the veil, but, if the Fates permit, the author hopes'at a later date to enlarge the book so as to make it a Worthier recordpof their unrivalled doings. He Would therefore be grateful to any corre spondents Who cared to send him any account of seafaring experiences during the war likely to contribute to that end. He desires also to take advantage of this opportunity of return ing thanks to those correspondents, Who have already taken a friendly interest in the under taking, and of expressing his obligations to several anonymous Writers from Whose articles in the press he has drawn some of the passages.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the efforts of merchant sailors and fishermen during the First World War, a time when their contributions proved pivotal to the war effort. The author sheds light on their bravery and resilience as they faced relentless attacks from German submarines and mines, despite being unarmed and defenseless. These seafarers played a crucial role in transporting millions of soldiers and supplies across vast oceans, ensuring the survival of Allied forces and maintaining vital trade routes. The book highlights the immense challenges faced by these men and women, who risked their lives daily without the glory or recognition typically associated with military personnel. It explores the evolution of naval warfare, where stealth and terror tactics replaced traditional battleships, and examines the ethical dilemmas that arose from Germany's ruthless submarine campaign. The author also discusses the impact of these events on the maritime industry and the legacy of the merchant sailors and fishermen whose sacrifices helped shape the course of history.
