Tempest, Fire & Foe Destroyer Escorts in WWII  and the Men Who Manned Them Author: Lewis M. Andrews, Jr. (463 pages, photos) Reviewer: Tom Harper Overall Rating: Four Stars--highly recommended. An excellent book. This book is a very well written history of destroyer escorts and their variants during WWII. There are hundreds of first person interviews of life aboard destroyers. These stories add depth and detail that would be lacking if the author only wrote what he knew. The author has given his story about his career and it shows what a Junior Officer did and how he assumed command of a ship. The author has left us a legacy to read about these small and gallant ships. As the generation matures, these stories in the book will live on forever. No matter where you opened this book, there was a story worth reading. Mr. Andrews evidently spent a lot of time researching material for this book. For historians, this book is a gold mine of information. For the destroyer sailor, you can place yourself in some of the scenes. I highly recommend this book for your library and reading pleasure.
