Talk:The Good Shepherd (novel)

Cleanup tag

This page appears to be about two different subjects, the term "The Good Shephard" and a book with that title. They should be split into seperate articles. Qutezuce 05:15, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

this appears to have already been done and now I have replaced the confusing subject matter with a dablink to the Dab Page. :: Kevinalewis : ^{(Talk Page)} 09:58, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

rm -- see talk

Someone changed the link to escort to a piped link to escort destroyer. This is incorrect. The escort force the hero commands is made up of four vessels -- two of which are Flower class corvettes -- smaller, slower vessels. Most of the escort vessels in the Atlantic convoys were corvettes.

So I delinked escort.

All C.S. Forester novels seem to have this tag, whether or not they're Napoleonic fiction (The Good Shepherd, for example, isn't). Why?

Plot synopsis contains OR?

In accordance with WP:OR I've tagged the end of the PLOT section with an OR tag. This is uncited opinion of the value of the novel. The revision was added anonymously here in July, 2020. -- David Spalding (☎ ✉ ✍) 20:11, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

The book is a rich, detailed accounting of Naval warfare, ship handling, and the inner logic of an experienced officer wrestling with the many minute judgments necessary to maintain rigid discipline during conditions of relentless tedium punctuated with extreme danger.
