Amphibious Warfare Post WWII by Ewen Southby-Tailyour is a collection of essays and professional writings based on his long career in the Royal Marines. The book brings together Ewen’s reflections on post–Second World War amphibious warfare, drawing on real operational experience, military planning and lessons learned from decades of service. It covers topics such as how amphibious operations evolved in modern conflicts and the practical realities of working in multinational military environments. The author also includes personal accounts from his service such as his time as a company commander during the Dhofar War and his wider work advising on amphibious doctrine later in his career.
A Life Under Sail: The Aquatic Adventures of a Royal Marine is a nautical memoir, also by Ewen Southby-Tailyour. It tells the story of Ewen’s lifelong passion for sailing and seamanship, beginning from early childhood through a distinguished career in small boats and maritime exploration. The book charts his extensive voyages — not in typical warm-water cruising grounds but in challenging, remote locations like the Falkland Islands. It covers his development of sailing skills, participation in major races like the Fastnet, deep-water cruising, encounters with varied traditional vessels around the world and dramatic survival experiences.
