Gordon Stables was a former naval surgeon turned enormously prolific writer of adventure fiction for boys, with the sea and the Royal Navy among his favourite subjects. This tale follows young men making their way in the navy of their day, aboard the modern steel-built warships that had replaced the wooden fleets of an earlier generation, in the brisk, patriotic adventure style for which Stables was widely read.
