| Entry Text: | HERBERT, A. P. Independent Member. [xii], 363p. London: Methuen, 1950.
Herbert was an MP for the University of Oxford. He was a law reformer, librettist, author, and public figure. Yet he still found time to enlist as a Petty Officer and take his six-ton boat Water Gipsy into the Navy. He spent six very active years combining his various careers with war service on the Thames, patrolling, towing, fetching, and carrying. Reprinted in 1970 by Howard Baker (ISBN: 0093088809). |
