From Dartmouth to the Dardanelles: A Midshipman's Log

"From Dartmouth to the Dardanelles: A Midshipman's Log" by Wolston B. C. W. Forester is a chronicle of a young naval student's transition from the structured halls of Dartmouth College to the front lines of World War I. Starting in May 1914, the story paints a picture of navy life, filled with both hard training and strong friendships, under the shadow of looming war. As Europe moves closer to conflict, the midshipman's world changes; leaving behind the innocence of youth, the young man receives his orders and steps into the chaos of naval warfare, forever changing his life.
