The Day British Seamen Said "No!" - A history of the Amalric Revolt
This is an account of the strike of British ships’ crews in New
Zealand during October and November 1975. “Strike of ships’
crews” is a correct description of what occurred. In no way
was it a strike of the National Union of Seamen; indeed the
NUS, or more exactly its paid officials, its bureaucracy, did
their damnedest to dismember and smash the strike.
