Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. Reprint. "A memorial - to a ship, to the men who served in her, and to Canadians who served at sea more than forty years ago. The Athabaskan was the second of the Canadian Tribal Class Destroyers, sister ship of the Haida. The story of the Athabaskan's life and death has been lovingly retrieved from forgotten archives and her daily log. In her short life she was pounded by the sea and battered by bombs, gunfire, and torpedoes. She spent her finest and final hours fighting alongside her sisters in the 10th Flotilla in 1944, helping to clear the English Channel of enemy ships prior to the D-Day invasion. First published in 1982. pp. [10], 198. Index. Oblong 11" x 9". Printed upon glossy stock. Profusely illustrated with maps and black and white reproductions of archival photos. The five Appendices include: Lieutenant-Commander Stubbs' Report, 27 April 1944; List of Athabaskan's Company Present on Her Last Patrol, 28/29 April 1944; List of Athabaskan's Company Who Served Prior to Her Last Patrol; Geographic Features in Canada Named for Athabaskan Casualties; Glossary of Naval Terms. Stamp and bits of writing atop half-title page, otherwise unmarked with average wear. A sound copy of this proud but sombre Canadian naval history. Cooke [3e] p.77.
