Torpedo versus Gun
Determined, tenacious and far-seeing, Lieutenant-Commander Jervis of the submarine Q18 and Lieutenant-Commander Hood of the light cruiser Firebrand each felt certain of winning their wager as they dined together in London. But as hostilities intensify, it quickly becomes clear that neither Hood nor Jervis have considered that The Reaper might take the matter into his own hands, and settle the naval bet himself. First published in 1919, Torpedo versus Gun is a classic naval adventure, a timeless contest between the old and the new, and of the rivalry between friends.
