Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Revealing the pivotal role played by the QE2 in the Falklands conflict, by two of the volunteers who crewed the liner. When the QE2 entered service in 1969 she was the last great transatlantic liner from a vanishing era. In 1982 she was requisitioned to carry over 3,000 troops to the South Atlantic to free the Falkland Islands from Argentinian occupation. This is the first account of the significant role played by the Cunard flagship *Queen Elizabeth 2* (QE2) *to the outcome of the 1982 Falklands conflict, as told by two of the volunteers who crewed the liner to the South Atlantic, one of them a former *QE2 *captain. This detailed account includes interviews and extracts from diaries kept during the voyage by the authors and other crew members, complimented by previously unpublished images and documents. The voyage included refuelling at sea under hazardous weather conditions and navigating by night through a treacherous South Atlantic icefield. Illustrated with numerous photographs showing the conversion to a troop ship, on-board training exercises and helicopter manoeuvres, this important book is the first to reveal the enormous contribution of the ship to the British war effort, delivering the largest number of troops to the war zone.

Warwick present the captivating and detailed story of QE2 through her time as a troopship.
