by Gunn, David

Includes .

Royal Navy sailor's experiences during the Mesopotamian campaign of 1915. As an able seaman on the armed sloop HMS Clio, he was hunting the soon-to-be-famous German cruiser Emden, then were next in action defending the Suez Canal against an attempted Turkish invasion before joining the expedition to invade Turkish-held Mesopotamia (Iraq) -- supporting the British expedition up the River Tigris. Philip Gunn's recollections give a rare perspective of this ill-fated campaign.

Authentic account drawn from Phillip Gunn's unpublished memoirs as well as conversations with the author, his son David. It is illustrated with 12 b/w photos and 20 color paintings by Philip Gunn himself.
