Douglas Reeman wrote naval and military fiction, often following Royal Navy officers through the Second World War and other twentieth-century conflicts. His novels include HMS Saracen, The Destroyers and The Last Raider, with ships, convoy duty, command decisions and the strain placed on crews forming the core of the stories. Reeman's books are action-led and traditional in structure, but they also spend time on hierarchy, responsibility and the personal cost of service. The clearest browsing territory is naval war fiction, maritime adventure and authors such as Alexander Fullerton and Nicholas Monsarrat. Read more Less
