Описание: This handbook, created to provide naval officers in World War II with advice and instruction on all aspects of their job, captures the benevolent language of the day, when authority was respected. It features an Officer’s Aide Memoire, with notes from officer training school; information for medical officers treating battle casualties afloat; counsel for captains taking command of their first ship; and guidance on handling ships and dealing with disobedience and mutiny. Historian Brian Lavery provides an introduction and commentary throughout.
