AbstractHistoryArchive Description

From back cover: 'Commander Peter Bentley was lord of Wind Rode, his was the responsibility for her two hundred men. There were many gunners on the ship, many asdic-operators, many engineers; but there was only one surgeon, Dr Landis reminded himself. Was the captain's responsibility more significant than holding a man's life literally in your fingers? He would see. So would they.'
