Critiques

This volume covers the public career of this naval innovator. Marder is a very competent editor, and the materials are arranged to great effect. Thus, a good book for the serious student of the man and the service. For the psychologist, there is also material for the study of a very uninhibited personality.

Superb.

Essential reading for anyone with an interest in the Navy or the period.

A massive study of the Royal Navy and its wartime performance. Well mapped and referenced. Professor Marder is an American, and an academic. The fact that Oxford printed the book is a sign of his prestige in the world of Royal Navy scholarship. I only have volume III in my library, the one which covers and maps the Battle of Jutland. This is an indication of my poverty.

Arthur Marder is one of the best writers on naval topics of WWI and this book brings his attention to some of the interesting topics dealing with the inter-war Royal Navy and how it coped with the early stages of WWII. The sad Oran episode forms the subject of the final essay and is a fitting critique of a sad and desperate action.
