I love how this book corrects my assumption that it was Britain and Britain alone who kept the early WWII vigil. This chapter quotes a British official who said that “the Norwegian merchant fleet was worth more to England ‘than an army of a million men’” because without them, the Allies would likely have lost the Battle of the Atlantic.
