HMS Leviathan (1984) By John Winton
The aircraft carrier Leviathan is the biggest, most powerful vessel the British Navy has ever commissioned. The showpiece of the navy, however, has limped from one crisis to another, from technical problems to dissent among her massive crew. Commander Bob Markready vows to whip it into shape.
John Winton joined the Royal Navy in 1949 and retired in 1963 as a Lieutenant-Commander. He is widely known as a novelist and historian of the sea. His books include Find, Fix and Strike: The Fleet Air Arm at War 1939-45; War in the Pacific: Pearl Harbor to Tokyo Bay. John Winton died in 2001.
