Description:
New book, 48 pages, 71 photos, plus illustrations. Trapped in the far east by the over-run of the Netherlands and by the occupancy of the Netherlands East Indies, Tromp's destiny lay in the Indian Ocean and Pacific onslaughts. The ship became one of the highest decorated Dutch warships of World War 2. Often refered as to as 'The Ghostship', the crew prefered to call her 'The Lucky ship', as she was claimed to be sunk no less than five times.
