Summary

Arctic convoys to Russia had much to contend with. They had to deal with attacks by U-boats and air attacks by the Luftwaffe plus severe cold, storms, fog, ice floes and waves so huge they tore at the ships' armour plating. This book is made from the stories of these brave men and have been collected together by their veteran comrades.
