Books like "Away Boarders" by Daniel V. Gallery


The idea of détente with the Soviets has not yet filtered down to Boatswain's Mate First Class Fatso Ciononni, who has skippered his scow‐like landing craft through two other novels by Admiral Gallery. This one finds Captain Fatso and his boys on duty in the Med, where they play chicken with Russian cruisers, and do other mean nautical things. The climactic caper involves an American‐made gunboat being transshipped to Egypt by way of Soviet headquarters. What happens on the high seas is a mixture of ingenious peacetime battle action, garnished with the author's salt‐encrusted observations on the state of the world.

Now, hear this! by 6075133|Daniel V. Gallery book cover

📘 Now, hear this!
 by Daniel V. Gallery

Gallery spins yarns about the escapades of Fatso Gioninni, a Bosuns Mate who runs the incinerator, and his pals on a post-WWII aircraft carrier. It features a number of really humorous short pieces about the naval shenanigans of these salty sailors. A really easy, enjoyable read. I bought it in a used book store on the Outer Banks of North Carolina for a rainy week at the beach back in the 70's and I still have my well-worn copy.
