5.0 out of 5 stars Readable WWI naval history by "world class historian"., April 8, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: From the Dreadnought to Scapa Flow: The Royal Navy in the Fisher Era, 1904-1919 Volume 5: Victory and Aftermath (January 1918-June 1919) (Victory & Aftermath) (Hardcover)

This is one of a set that analyzes the Royal Navy
during WWI. Marder is a world class naval historian.
His books are readable and interesting. He
tells a tale that is occasionally sad as he
describes a Royal Navy that tries, and at Jutland fails,
to live up to its Nelsonian traditions. All in all,
great history and worth the study.
Accompanied by good maps.

This excellant book should be read with its four accompanying volumes to obtain a detailed and elegant account of the Royal Navy during the Fisher era.
