Commander Crabb
What Really Happened?

There is nothing more certain to give rise to damaging speculation than suppression of the facts. In 1956 Commander Lionel ‘Buster’ Crabb dived beneath a Russian cruiser in Portsmouth Harbour – against the express direction of the prime minister. He failed to return.

A clumsy official cover-up ensued which spawned a plethora of conspiracy theories. So what really happened?

This book is the result of personal investigation and a expert analysis of published material relating to the incident and its aftermath.
