内容简介:
In this gripping, page-turning account, Sam Moses has told a
story in the tradition of Sebastian Junger’s A Perfect Storm,
Robert Kurson’s Shadow Divers, and Hampton Sides’s Ghost Soldiers.
It’s a story about the heroism of two men in battle at sea during
World War II, and one woman fleeing Nazi Norway with her child.
It’s about how courage can change the course of history.
AT ALL COSTS: How a Crippled Ship and Two American Merchant
Marines Turned the Tide of World War II is the astonishing untold
account, with original historical reporting, of how two men faced
unfathomable danger to help save the island of Malta, Churchill’s
crux of the war.
In 1942, the tiny island of Malta was the most heavily bombed
place on earth. Hitler needed Malta as a stepping-stone to get to
the oil in Iraq and Iran (Persia at the time). Blockaded by sea,
Malta was running on empty, in food, fuel and ammunition. Axis
U-boats and dive-bombers made supply convoys to Malta more like
suicide missions. In this last-hope convoy, 50 warships escorted 13
freighters carrying aviation fuel, and a single critical tanker,
the SS Ohio, with 107,000 barrels of oil from Texas. Winston
Churchill had traveled to Washington and asked FDR for the
tanker–his prime ministership was at stake over this mission to
Malta.
Relentlessly dive-bombed and repeatedly torpedoed, the Ohio
suffered huge hits and was abandoned. Two young American merchant
mariners–pulled from the sea after their own ship went down in
flames–boarded the ravaged tanker, repaired her guns and fought off
German and Italian dive-bombers, as the sinking Ohio was towed at 4
knots toward Malta with a tiny crew of volunteers.
Sam Moses’ AT ALL COSTS is a triumphant story of human bravery:
fearless, selfless acts by men determined to save a ship and win a
war; profound communal courage from an island under brutal siege;
and leaders who understood the cause of freedom.
