A collection of 14 true stories, taken from 400 years of war, of how crews and warships battled against overwhelming odds, only to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Examples include the sinking of armed raiders by a US merchant in 1942, and Japanese resistance off Bali in 1942.

Few 'firsts' in the world of aviation can be found without an earlier one turning up sometimes in a bizarre context. A case in point is the J V Martin K.III Kitten, a remarkable collection of innovative concepts combined in an aeroplane that was fundamentally unsound for its avowed purpose.

This book is all about last stands and grand gestures in the face of daunting odds, and all at sea, where there is no safe hiding place, no cover but the sea itself - and who can trust the sea? But sailors are not afraid to fight on it, and in this exciting collection of true stories every kind of naval tactic, aggressive, defensive, piratical, suicidal, in force of numbers or alone, is explored in the fourteen unlinked episodes. In whole, this is a reminder that once, not so long ago, world power was measured at sea rather than on the land or in the air.
