Books, Manuscripts
Jim McLoughlin joined the Royal Navy in 1939. He was returning home on leave in September 1942 aboard HMS Laconia when it was torpedoed and sunk by a German U-boat. The ensuing tale of his survival is a heart-rending account of hope repeatedly crushed by adversity, only to rise again.
