Goodwin, Peter (Peter G.)2015
Books
Launched in 1945 and commissioned two years later, HMS Alliance was built for service with the Royal Navy in the Far East. Alliance had a long and distinguished career of more than 28 years that took her all over the world. Today, Alliance is the centrepiece at the Royal Navy Submarine Museum in Gosport, where the submarine experience is brought to life by tours around the boat. Former submariner and historian Peter Goodwin examines Alliance in detail, shedding light on her construction and restoration, and describing what it was like to live, work and go to war in a submarine.
