This is the story of the Polaris programme, delivered on time and on budget by a small group of naval officers and civil servants, ensuring Britain maintained a Continuous at Sea Deterrence for twenty-eight years.

Polaris combines historical analysis with personal memories and photographs, creating a lasting legacy to a fascinating project and providing an insight into a world that no longer exists. Perfect for readers interested in military history, Cold War history, and submarine warfare.
