This work presents a historical account of the remarkable and courageous stories of all the combats during the First World War when Germany's use of submarine warfare provoked public uproar and jeopardized Britain's trade routes and its very ability to carry on the war. The British had to think of something to defeat them, and they considered Q-ships to be the right way. Q-ships were heavily armed merchant ships with hidden weaponry created to draw submarines into making surface attacks in order to get a chance to sink them. The work contains details from the tactics that were used by the royal navy to the life on board a Q-ship and finally how they carried out their plan. Written shortly after the war, based on interviews with numerous personalities and several manuscripts related to the subject, this work contains accurate descriptions of the various ships employed and the daring men sailing them, along with several unknown details. This book is a must-read to get a fact-based and comprehensive outlook of the Royal Navy.

This book undertakes a unique, coherent and comprehensive consideration of the depiction of naval warfare in the cinema. The films under discussion encompass all areas of naval operations in war, and highlight varying institutional and aesthetic responses to navies and the sea in popular culture. The examination of these films centres on their similarities to and differences from the conventions of the war genre and seeks to determine whether the distinctive characteristics of naval film narratives justify their categorisation as a separate genre or sub-genre in popular cinema.
