Having reported on the sinking of Submarine H29 in Devonport Dockyard in 1926 with several fatalities, on the causes of the accident and the subsequent Courts Martial of the Commanding Officer and the First Lieutenant where both were found guilty of the charges and the First Lieutenant was 'dismissed his ship'.
It was on a difficult and dangerous line-laying mission in the Kattegat that H.M. Submarine Seal was involved in one of the strangest, most frightening, and most heroically stirring episodes of the Second World War.
This is the full story, based on eyewitness accounts and official records, and told in dramatic detail by authors who were themselves submariners.
