Description

Tells the story of the ship Porlock Bay in which the author served as an able seaman for one and a half years in the immediate post war period. His experiences onboard stayed with him in his life and led him to form an association for the ship's alumni. He has memories of his seagoing days and so has written this account as a legacy of that time.
