8vo., First Edition, with 8 plates and front and rear endpaper maps, tiny signature on front free endpaper; green cloth, gilt back, blue top, a near fine copy in price-clipped dustwrapper. Beesly served in OIC from 1940; his account is the first to describe in detail its fight against Germany, excluding the Mediterranean theatre. A useful complement to Maclachlan but with the advantage that ULTRA was beginning to declassify and there is here much new material. Specific episodes include the sinkings of the Bismarck and the Scharnhorst, the Channel Dash and Arctic convoy PQ 17. A key text in the unveiling of ULTRA by a central player in its dissemination. The original edition is elusive in this condition. Enser p.127; 154; Law 0816.
8vo., Second and Best Edition, with 8 plates; green cloth, gilt back, a very good, clean copy in unclipped dustwrapper. Beesly served in OIC from 1940; his account is the first to describe in detail its fight against Germany, excluding the Mediterranean theatre. A useful complement to Maclachlan but with the advantage that ULTRA was beginning to declassify and there is here much new material. Specific episodes include the sinkings of the Bismarck and the Scharnhorst, the Channel Dash and Arctic convoy PQ 17. A key text in the unveiling of ULTRA by a central player in its dissemination. The original edition of 1977 is now very scarce. This revised and updated edition redresses the context in the light of recent disclosures, retains all the plates and includes a revised bibliography. The original foreword by Mountbatten is replaced by Gardner's extended introduction and the (rather redundant) endpaper maps are omitted. Enser, p.127, 154; Law, 0816 (all recording the first edition)

8vo., First Edition; handsomely bound in navy full morocco, sides with gilt frame border, back with raised bands ruled in gilt, second and fourth compartments lettered and ruled in gilt, all other compartments tooled and ruled in gilt, a most attractive copy ideal as a gift or for presentation. Fictionalised but accurate account of the author's five months in a destroyer on the Murmansk run. Generally considered one of the finest accounts of life at sea; certainly a minor classic of WWII. A LOVELY COPY OF THE SCARCE ORIGINAL EDITION. Law, 1062.
8vo., Fourth Impression; blue cloth, gilt back, backstrip mildly faded (but all gilt wholly legible), a bright, clean copy in unclipped, mildly browned dustwrapper, the latter chipped (not affecting lettering) at head and tail of backstrip. Published two months after the first edition. Fictionalised but accurate account of the author's five months in a destroyer on the Murmansk run. Generally considered one of the finest accounts of life at sea; certainly a minor classic of WWII. ALL EARLY PRINTINGS ARE SCARCE IN THE DUSTWRAPPER. Law, 1062.
