    “Until now, Thomas Dring's memoir of his incarceration on a British prison ship has been available only in the heavily edited version first published in Now . Recollections of the Jersey Prison Ship has 10 ratings and 3 reviews. Don said: Recollections of the Jersey Prison Ship is a short, first person account.

    The first-person narration in this book seems wasted as the book is so demure - lacking in gritty details that you imagine it needs. May 23, Dena Norman rated it liked it. I expected more details about the miserable conditions. Still an interesting read.
