A collection of letters from a young serviceman of the Royal Navy that reveal the unconditional love between himself and his parents as he underwent training and later deployment to a series of submarines. The letters are interspersed with explanatory notes and stories of dubious origin.
From the mundane to the sometimes ridiculous, the subjects discussed in the letters reveal the general day to day concerns and issues of life before emails and text messaging.
A global traveler, he communicated with his mother from various parts of the world whenever the opportunity and/or the need arose. Sit back and enjoy the small talk between one young man and his mother as he grew from a gawky teenager into a young adult who thought he knew it all, then pray that he doesn't find any more letters to publish, particularly the ones he sent to his girlfriends!
In short, this is the two previous books combined into one volume with some extra notes and some pictures.
