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.
