This finely detailed account of the famous World War I naval battle is bracketed by a succinct series of introductory chapters that provide background, and an epilogue that cuts through the competing agendas to show how the inconclusive outcome was spun, twisted, and obscured by the key players and their cronies as the official Admiralty history was subverted by out-sized egos. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
When the British and German fleets met at Jutland on 31 May 1916, it was believed that the long-awaited final battle for world naval dominance had come. Yet the outcome of the action fell far short of the expectations of both sides: the Germans had failed to decisively defeat the Grand Fleet, but equally the Royal Navy had failed to win a second Trafalgar.
