HICHENS, Robert Peverell. We Fought Them in Gunboats (HMS Beehive Edition). xxiv, 321p., notes, illus., index. Pleshey: Golden Duck, 2023. ISBN: 9781899262595.
A hugely expanded version of the original autobiography. It contains the full text of the original manuscript as opposed to the heavily censored and Admiralty approved version published in 1944, as well as many documents and details about the naval base HMS Beehive, where Hichens was based. In effect a new work.
