Make Another Signal by Captain Jack Broome, published by William Kimber in 1973. First print hardback with excellent dustjacket. Signalling at sea started when ships found themselves beyond shouting distance from one another. Today it has developed to the point when a fleet could be manoeuvred on another planet by means of radio telephone and television set. Through all it's restless stages of progress signal communication has been the Royal Navy's lifeblood. Make Another Signal is an anthology of signals from the logs of our warships past and present; some recapture the tension of a sea fight by on the spot signal commentary; others pinpoint and illuminate great naval moments. Then there are examples of how close or how far apart two minds concerned with the same problem - but separated by distance - can be. Add to this a large and varied collection of wit, drama, fun, sarcasm and pomposity which at some time has been flagged, flashed or tapped through the ether - each message having in common a thought in mind of the sender at some past moment which has been served fresh from the tarnish of hindsight. Book is NF/NF. Appears unread. Dustjacket in complete, not price clipped. Spine not faded. Really excellent copy. |
