Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Officer of the Deck is much more than a simple war memoir; it is very much a coming-of-age story and a classic tale of life at sea in a small ship, beautifully told by the man on that ship with the most to learn.

First Edition
1st edition stiff wrappers As New small octavo xiv + 252pp., b/w plates, map, 'More than a simple war memoir, this book is very much a "coming of age" story and even more an epic of the sea and the brave men who cast their faces to the vagaries of wind and waves. As Ensign Kriloff gains rank and advances up the short chain of command, more responsibility is placed on his shoulders, and he does well with it because, though the sea is unforgiving, his seniors have been patient and kind teachers. By the end of 1943 Lieutenant Kriloff has his own command - a modern class destroyer escort'.
