About this title

Synopsis

Kenneth Poolman is acknowledged to be one of the great naval historians and with Illustrious he demonstrates his enormous talent for making the war, in words, come alive for us as few other writers can. Here, in this book, Mr Poolman paints a vivid picture of life aboard a great carrier in wartime, as seen through the eyes of some of her crew. HMS Illustrious was true to her name. She was in the glory of Taranto where the Italian fleet was crippled by the Fleet Air Arm and later she was in the hell of dive-bombing attacks which sent her limping into Malta more dead than alive. HMS Illustrious was the might, majesty, dominion and power of the great carrier task-forces that paved the way for victory at sea.
