I am really pleased with this review of 'Being Silent They Speak' left on Amazon recently. It certainly seems that people are enjoying the book and appreciating the big part of my life that it took to write and research. Watch out for my next World War Two true story book coming in the near future. This book will leave the reader wanting more and many 70 year old questions answered!

5 STARS!
Well crafted and thoroughly researched book, a pleasure to read.
The author's naval knowledge shines through, but he has clearly also done extensive research on HMS Unbeaten and the personalities that made up her brave crew. It is in his well crafted descriptions of Malta, the extremely challenging conditions of operations there and HMS Unbeaten's extensive operations in the Med that the book comes alive. The touching personal link between the author and one of the crew of Unbeaten has no doubt also been a catalyst for the quality of this book, including the research into Unbeaten's sad demise. A well researched, enjoyable and informative read.
Thank you so much VictorG
