The Ship That Hunted Itself - Simpson

The Ship That Hunted Itself by Colin Simpson is a well told bit of unusual naval history. During World War I, two ocean liners, the British Carmania and the German Cap Trafalgar, were converted into armed warships and deployed to hunt enemy vessels. By coincidence the captain of each vessel disguised his ship as the other's. By an even greater coincidence they met in the south Atlantic. Illustrated. Hardcover. 207pp.
