At sea with Cree / by Lieutenant-Commander Peter Cree, R. N. ; edited by Reg Betts. This is a personal account of the author's twenty years in the Royal Navy from 1942 to 1962.

His war service was on the HMS Duke of York and in destroyers and frigates, first in the Arctic and Atlantic and then in the Mediterranean for the North African landings and later in the Far East.
