Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a World War I memoir of Kapitanleutnant von Müller, who commanded the German auxiliary cruiser Emden on a daring mission in the Indian Ocean. It recounts the Emden's initial success in capturing or sinking over 20 Allied ships, providing a first-hand account of the German perspective on this phase of the war. The narrative delves into the motivations of the crew, the challenges they faced as outcasts on the high seas, and the human element of their encounters with the captured ships' passengers. The author reveals the strategies employed by the Emden to evade enemy detection, including the ingenious use of a dummy fourth funnel to disguise itself as a British ship. The book offers a unique glimpse into the experiences of German sailors during the war and sheds light on the little-known events in the Eastern theater of operations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Two classics of war at seaThe author of this book, von Mücke wrote two accounts of his naval experiences in the Imperial German Navy during the First World War and both are brought together in this special Leonaur edition. Mücke was the executive officer and first lieutenant on the light cruiser SMS Emden. The Emden raided commercial shipping from her base at Tsingtao, China, into the Indian Ocean. After a four month raiding spree she was finally discovered and destroyed by the Australian Navy light cruiser Sydney. Prior to the arrival of the Sydney, von Mücke, commanding a 53 man landing party had gone ashore on Direction Island in the Cocos group to disable a wireless station and from there witnessed his ship's demise. Upon realising his small command was cut adrift, von Mücke seized the schooner Ayesha and began an epic 11,000 km journey of escape across sea and land. Mücke's writings are essential reading for anyone interested in the Imperial German Navy and true stories of high adventure at sea.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.…
