You might also want to check a library for Monsarrat At Sea, a collection of his wartime articles and some new material which tells the true story of the Corvettes he served on.

Here is the mini-review I did of the book back when I read it.

[edit] I went looking for a copy for myself and found several at very good prices. Look at #16 for a good copy close to you. Click on the 'Booksellers' link in that post to get them directly. At that price you can't go wrong.

[edit] I got so excited I just spent more than I needed to ($15.50 USD) for a copy in 'Very Fine' condition. I thought it would be a whole lot more.
