Lamb, James B. THE CORVETTE NAVY: TRUE STORIES FROM CANADA'S ATLANTIC WAR.
Macmillan of Canada, Toronto, 1977.
179 pp, 8vo (8 3/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0770515789 "(Tells) the dramatic story of Canada's forgotten war - the North Atlantic war against the German U-boats. In those days, Britain stood alone, relying desperately upon the vital s upplies brought by convoy across the great, grey wastes of the North Atlantic. There the pride of Hitler's navy, the U-boat wolf-packs, waited to pick off the slow, unarmed convoys. What stood between the U-boats and their prey were the corvettes : small, battered, under-equipped, and in need of repair. They were manned, not by naval professionals, but by a group of skilled and dedicated amateurs - farm boys off the prairies, Toronto taxi drivers, bricklayers from Quebec, and a smattering of merchant seamen. Many of them were still in their teens; their officers, including 'The Old Man', were often in their mid-twenties. Yet this little band of amateurs took on and beat the German U-boat professionals - and won a vital portion of the war...." Light edge wear to boards, small foxing mark on bottom of textblock, tiny speck on fore-edge of textblock. Dust jacket has light edge wear/wrinkling - mainly at top/bottom of spine and flap-folds, light rubbing, minor soiling. Good+ /Goo d+
