When Are You Going Back?

A memoir of the sea

Following volumes one and two: 'The Best of Days' and 'You'll See Wonders', here is part three of the memoirs of a radio officer in the golden years of the British Merchant Navy. At the close of the 1950s, we take voyages to the East on steamships with British and Indian crews. We come to know the Ganges Delta, Calcutta, Madras, Ceylon, Eritrea, Sudan, and the Maldives. We meet wireless equipment before the age of transistors. There are telegraph keys, Morse code, early Radar, and India just twelve years after independence.
