Entry Text: | DREW, Nicholas. Amateur Sailor. v, 291p. London: Constable, 1944.
His autobiography to 1941, with thin disguises for the names of people and ships. In the chaotic early days of the war, he served on a trawler in Norway, in the small ships of Dunkirk, went to King Alfred and then to a new corvette in the Atlantic. Published under a pseudonym, the author's real name of Harling was used for a later edition. Under that name his service in the Atlantic is also described. |
