First published in 1951, this is the autobiography of Admiral Lord Mountevans, and it is indeed a tale of high spirits. The writer has a fine sense of adventure, and he revels in the excitement of the incredibly beautiful scenes which were frequently encountered. As he states himself in the opening—“If I had my life over again I certainly wouldn’t change it, because it has been full of excitements, hazards and adventures, in peace as well as in war”—the reader is left with the impression that Admiral Lord Mountevans would certainly do it all again if he could, and knows that he or she is getting an authentic picture of real happenings.
