Last Action Hero of the British Empire: Cdr John Kerans 1915-1985 Book

Last Action Hero of the British Empire is a short life of the principal figure in the so-called Yangtse Incident of 1949 when the Royal Navy took on the might of communist China to rescue one of its frigates, the HMS Amethyst. It is quite interesting, but naval buffs will want something more substantial and would be well advised to read the standard accounts of the episode. And don't expect Arnold Schwarzenegger, either. Despite Nigel Farndale's attempts to write amethyst-style prose this is a rather excited as opposed to exciting narrative. --Miles TaylorRead More
