Scapa
Flow
Malcolm Brown & Patricia Meehan
Scapa Flow - to this generation a
name in the history books, but the two others a home, a mistress, a legend.'
The voice of one of the thousands who saw service in or around the Royal Navy's
famous anchorage in the Orkney Islands, from where ships sailed to the Battle of
Jutland in the First War or to north Russia in the Second and which in 1919
became the watery grave of the German High Seas Fleet. This book brings together
the memories of sailors, soldiers, Wrens, nurses and civilians to form a
compelling portrait of this unique, and for those who served there
unforgettable, war station.
