Scapa Flow, a vast, natural harbour in the Orkney Islands, served
as the Royal Navy’s main base during the two world wars, from
where ships sailed to the Battle of Jutland in the First and in
convoy to northern Russia in the Second. Thousands of men and women
saw service in and around this remote anchorage, including soldiers
and sailors who crewed the ships and manned the lonely batteries,
and Wrens, nurses and civilians who were posted there. Scapa Flow
brings together their memories – the bleak isolation, its
implacable winds and glorious sunsets, the camaraderie and good
humour – forming a compelling portrait of a unique war station
that left its mark on all who served there.
