Many Were Held by the Sea tells the story of the crash of HMS Otranto and HMS Kashmir off the coast of Scotland near the end of World War I.

The narrative details the courage of the young men on board and the anguish of their relatives on the home front, ultimately building up to the disastrous conclusion.
