In the closing months of the war, Second Class Seaman Kennedy served aboard the newly commissioned destroyer Joseph P. Kennedy Jr. (named for his brother, who died in an airplane explosion over the English Channel).

Of recent books from both sides of the Channel about the greatest battle of the age of sail (Trafalgar, by Oliver Warner; Trafalgar, by Rene Maine), Dudley Pope, 34, British yachtsman, newsman, and merchant mariner, has written the best. In it he tries, and for the most part successfully, to reconstruct the historic engagement as it was seen by both officers and men, not only of the British Navy but of the Combined Fleets of France and Spain...
