The Ark Royal is a story about an out of date military star ship and its long suffering captain. Both the ship and the captain are considered out of step with reality. But when humanity meets a real alien threat both the captain and the ship prove more able than anyone would have dared to imagine. The story about the captain and his battle with alcoholism makes a very interesting side light to the strategy and the well written space battles. This is a solid military science fiction book and is worthy of reading.
