About this book

Queen Mary and the Cruiser: The Curacoa Disaster by Thomas, David Arthur. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781557506986.

The authors, a naval historian and a survivor of the disaster, detail the tragic sinking of HM cruiser Curacoa off Bloody Foreland in 1942, when the Cunard liner Queen Mary sliced through the cruiser in broad daylight and under no adverse weather conditions. They reconstruct a minute-by-minute record of the errors preceding the disaster, enhanced by eye-witness accounts. Includes b&w photos. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
