Book Information

2010 sees the 70th anniversary of the evacuation of the British army at Dunkirk. The lives of 338,226 men were saved in 861 vessels. The story of one of the young men who aided in the evacuation is now heard for the first time. Joe Read was only 15 years old when he crossed the channel in his father's lifeboat, Brittanic, and braved artillery fire and German bombing to rescue men of the British Expeditionary Force.
