Ordeal by Water by Peter Keeble is a gripping, first-hand account of naval salvage and underwater bomb disposal operations during the Second World War. Written by a South African officer who served as the Fleet Salvage Officer in the Eastern Mediterranean, the narrative details the incredibly hazardous tasks of clearing blocked harbors, raising sunken vessels, and disarming unexploded enemy mines under treacherous conditions. Featuring a foreword by Admiral Sir Bernard Rawlings, this volume offers an exceptional look into a specialized, high-stakes dimension of wartime maritime history. Written in English.
