Items related to WW1 at Sea (Pocket Essential series)
In this historical work, the events that led to war and the naval arms race between Britain and Germany are examined. It details the significant arena of war: the battle for control of the sea. At the beginning of the war in 1914, Britain's maritime supremacy had remained unchallenged for 100 years, but advances in technology saw a very different kind of warfare with the widespread use of mines, submarines, and torpedoes. This chronicle traces the events of the war at sea, looking at the major battles, as well as the effects of unrestricted submarine warfare and the sinking of the Lusitania. It also profiles key figures such as admirals Fisher, Beatty, Tirpitz, and Graf von Spee.
