Based on the remarkable story of `The U-boat that lost its Nerve' (formerly a radio play by James Follett) , U-700 is an account of the surrender of a U-boat (actually U-570) to an RAF Hudson during World War II and the subsequent illegal court martial of the U-boat's first officer by his fellow officers in a POW camp.
Churchill's Gold (1980) / Novel by James Follett: In 1941, before America entered the war, the last of Britain's dwindling gold reserves are held in South Africa.
