Overview
2022 Reprint of the 1955 Edition. The Good Shepherd is a 1955 nautical and war novel by C. S. Forester. First published in the U.S., it illustrates the difficulties of the Battle of the Atlantic: the struggle against the sea, the enemy, and the exhaustion brought on by constant vigilance. It also details the problems of the early radar and ASDIC equipment available and the poor communications between the fleet and Admiralty using HF Radio and early manual cryptography. A film adaptation was released in 2020. Reviews "A high and glittering excitement...[Forester] has no master and few peers." -The New York Times "Nothing more exciting has been launched since Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea." -The Guardian "C. S. Forester is the best living writer about the sea." -Time "Action, tension, tingling suspense...The greatest adventure story to come out of World War II." -Life Magazine About the Author C. S.
