Reader's note

In this lovely novel, Depends What You Mean By Love by Nicholas Monsarrat,contains three long stories each portraying a different form of love. They are written with that clear brilliance which brought from the Observer reviewer of his Corvette books the simile “crisp as young celery.” The stories included are H.M.S. Marlborough Will Enter Harbour, which tells of the adventures of a warship, crippled and sinking, bring brought into a safe haven by the indomitable courage of her captain, whose love of his ship was the love of his life; Leave Cancelled, the story of a naval officer and the girl he married on leave - of their hurried wedding and their honeymoon which, reduced to a care twenty-four hours by a telegram recalling him to duty concentrated their passionate love into a day and night of repressed emotion; and Heavy Rescue which recalls vividly the grim days of air-raids, of the howling of the sirens, of the gallant deeds of the many civilians who rose to heights of gallantry and self sacrifice.
