Ordeal by Exocet : HMS Glamorgan and the Falklands War 1982: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Ordeal by Exocet : HMS Glamorgan and the Falklands War 1982" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
New light is shed on the Belgrano affair and startling facts are revealed about other incidents including the high level conduct of the war. There is a detailed account of the successful deception plan, Operation Tornado, and the impact of the war on the families left at home.
While attacking the enemy, Glamorgan faced missiles, bombs, shells and rockets. Personal accounts recall these attacks, and other operations including the Pebble Island raid. All the Exocet attacks on the Battle Group are included, culminating with the desperate fight to save the ship, which came perilously close to sinking. The aftermath and the trauma experienced by those who lost shipmates brings home the gruesome reality of war. Written by one who experienced at first hand that reality, Ordeal by Exocet is a gripping read for historian, enthusiast and general reader alike

This book could not have been written without the help of the Ships Company of Glamorgan and their families. I am especially grateful to the following contributors: Keith Balston, Judy Barrow, Michael Barrow, Taff Callaghan, Alan Carlisle, R Dunn, Hugh Edleston, Paul Engeham, Nigel Fielding, Ian Forbes, John Gilbert, Chris Gotto, Elizabeth Gotto, John Holden, Phil Holding, Nigel Lowe, Geoff Martin, Eon Matthews, Barry Nixon, Michael Page, Colin Phillips, Francis Ryle, P Sefton, James W Spence, Roger Tipton, Mike Walton, Alan Watt, Michael Wiltshire, and other crew members of Glamorgan and their families whose experiences are recounted.
My appreciation also extends to the Ministry of Defence for permission to illustrate this book with official photographs.
I am particularly indebted to my wife Marianne, together with our daughters Katherine and Sarah for their encouragement, support and constructive suggestions. It was their willing acceptance of the impact of this task upon family life which made this book possible.
