CONNELL, G. G. Valiant Quartet: His Majesty's Anti-Aircraft Cruisers Curlew, Cairo, Calcutta, Coventry. 303p., bibliog., illus., index. London: Kimber, 1979. ISBN: 0718304268.

These four ships had in common their quotas of men from the London division of the RNVR and it is as much their story that is told. The ships saw hard service and bloody fighting in the first three years of the war, all being sunk in action by the autumn of 1942. The book is marred by careless errors of printing.
