Today i was joined by Jim Carter.
Jim is an author who wrote the fantastic Hearts of Steel.
Hearts of Steel explores the time of the Royal Navy from the end of World War 1 to the Battle of Crete in May 1941. During this period the Royal Navy was taking the fight to the German war machine. There were losses, but great victories too. It was a time of developing tactics and a growing realisation that the day of the Aircraft Carrier was now, whilst the sun was setting on the era of the Battleship. The tale is unique, following the service record of an able seaman of the period. However, this is not a biography of a single man. The narrative follows the careers of the ships in which he served, their crews, commanding officers and the development of the Royal Navy as it evolved from the period of sail and canon to oil fired steel castles that could accurately hurl a shell over 12 miles.
We chatted in depth about Jim's Great Grandfather, and in particular, about HMS Nubian and it's war career.
Thanks to Jim for joining me.
