Description: | Exercise book containing cuttings (1916) from the British and American press concerning the 'BARALONG incident'. The Q ship BARALONG was alleged to have deliberately killed the crew of a German U-Boat (U-27) and to have sunk the U-Boat after it attacked the steamer NICOSIAN on 19 August 1915; the cuttings reveal the Allied reaction to the hitherto concealed allegations and detail the German charges. Wilkinson was a member of the crew of the BARALONG at that time.
