Customer Reviews

Pope is an outstanding naval historian

Despite knowing "how it ends" (this is history, after all) Pope kept me riveted with his excellent writing and wealth of detail about the men, the ships, and the places. Buy this book if you can find it! I highly recommend this and anything else Pope has written.
