My Sea Lady is the story of HMS Lady Madeleine, an ocean-going trawler converted to an anti-submarine role as part of the convoys to supply the Soviet Union as it faced the savage onslaught of the German army. This was a voyage fraught with storms, ice bergs, and sub-zero temperatures in peacetime alone, but now the convoys faced worse - the fearsome gauntlet of German aircraft, submarines and surface raiders strung out along the coast of Norway, waiting to meet them. Graeme Ogden commanded the vessel in question, keeping diaries of the harrowing experiences of those years, which also cover his time on the equally perilous Atlantic convoys. These accounts were rediscovered and published as a memoir in the 1960s, illustrated with exquisite line drawings by Richard Elsden, who also sailed on these voyages, adding that extra touch of realism.
