Carrier Glorious

The story of the aircraft carrier HMS Glorious from her early days as a light cruiser at the end of World War One to her final days as an aircraft carrier in the Norway Campaign.  

Her sinking there by the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau with the loss of almost all her crew was a major catastrophe and the events that led to it were hidden until this book revealed them in 1986.  

Glued to the flyleaf is a note: "Johnnie, I hope you find this book interesting.  Many thanks for a lovely weekend.  Ever, Jamie".  Presumably this is Group Captain Pat Jameson.
