Title: Windrush Author: Paul Arnott Narrator: John Telfer Format: mp3 Length: 8 hrs and 43 mins Release date: 06-03-19 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 2 ratings Genres: Ships & Shipbuilding Publisher's Summary: For three decades the Windrush was the maritime Zelig of the 20th century, playing different roles in the most turbulent years in modern times. Designed in 1930 in the Hamburg boatyard of a Jewish shipbuilder to ferry Germans to a new life in South America, it wasn't long before Goebbels requisitioned her as one of his ‘Strength Through Joy’ vessels. However, her duties soon darkened: she became a Nazi troop carrier, a support vessel for the pocket battleship Tirpitz and a prison ship transporting Jews to Auschwitz.
