Excerpt from a 1944 review in the New York Times by Frank S. Adams:-
"HERE at last is the first comprehensive account of the magnificent deeds of the ships and men of the American merchant marine in this war, written by a man who knows both ships and men at first hand. Robert Carse, who wrote the thrilling story of the Murmansk convoy run in "There Go the Ships," has now produced a worthy companion piece for it in this broader survey of heroic feats on all the seven seas."
