Churchill's Thin Grey Line

British Merchant Ships at War 1939–1945

Bernard Edwards
Just hours after war was declared in September 1939, the cargo/passenger liner Athenia was sunk, beginning six perilous years for Britain’s mercantile fleet. Highlighting the dangerous but vital work of the merchantmen, Bernard Edwards’ tribute recounts a selection of compelling encounters such as the tramp steamer Newton Pine, holding its own in a fight with a U-boat in the North Atlantic in 1940.
