Summary "Dave Darrin After the Mine Layers; Or, Hitting the Enemy a Hard Naval Blow" by H. Irving Hancock is a naval adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Lieutenant Commander Dave Darrin as he embarks on a dangerous mission involving mine warfare during World War I. Along with his close friend Dan Dalzell, Darrin navigates perilous waters while combating German naval forces and dealing with the complexities of war on the high seas. The opening of the novel sets the stage for an intense and suspenseful journey as Darrin receives orders to protect British mine-sweepers from German threats while also seeking to counter enemy mine-laying activities. As he and his crew prepare to weigh anchor, we see Darrin’s leadership and determination in high-stakes situations. The narrative features a critical moment where Darrin is hurled overboard during a storm, heightening the tension and establishing the potential for both personal heroism and tragedy in the face of naval combat. This opening portion effectively engages readers with its action-packed scenes and camaraderie among the crew, promising an exciting read filled with adventure and moral dilemmas.
