![]() Nenhum(a) Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. The title story in this anthology deals with the post-war career of a PT boat. The other stories are competent, but don't have the knock-out title than defines the collection. It is worth the read and defines the far east milieu after 1945 and before 1960.
