First English Edition. The memoirs of Churchill's close colleague, the Royal Navy's Admiral of the Fleet, published just as Churchill was about to return as First Lord of the Admiralty. This is a very good copy, in an unclipped dust jacket; virtually mint, save for some edge-chipping and closed tears on the front face. The contents are fine. Rare thus. 8vo (373 pages, illustrated with photo frontis, 7 plans & maps, 23 leaves of plates.) (Cohen B65.1).
