The Volunteers by Douglas Reeman
They were the men and women of the Royal Navy's Special Operations units. Carrying out lightning raids on hostile coasts, they became a navy within a navy--each handpicked for their individual skills, and all of them courageous. Against the mighty backdrop of World War I they performed their small but deadly operations--living often beyond hope, sometimes beyond mercy. This is the dramatic story of a handful of such people. The Volunteers.
Douglas Edward Reeman, also known as Alexander Kent, entered the Royal Navy at the age of 16 and served on destroyers and small ships throughout WWII, eventually attaining to the rank of lieutenant. He has worked as a script adviser for television and cinema and has taught navigation to yachtsmen. Reeman is the author of the best-selling Richard Bolitho novels as Alexander Kent. His books have been translated into over a dozen different languages.
