Publisher Description: "Some thirty of her Majesty‟s men-of-war were involved in this matter; say a dozen battleships of the most recent, and seventeen or eighteen cruis-ers; but my concern was limited to one of a new type commanded by an old friend. I had some dim knowledge of the interior of a warship, but none of the new world into which I stepped from a Portsmouth wherry one wonderful summer evening in ‟97." |
