This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from More Sea Fights, of the Great War, Including the Battle of Jutland This book, like its forerunner, "Sea Fights of the Great War," is again the work of many hands. Naval friends have contributed vital details, giving life and colour to what might otherwise have proved a dull recital of facts. Of the three collaborators whose names appear upon the title-page, one of them, Mr. W. D. Kirkpatrick, served in varying capacities all through the war. His work was highly technical, and he has been able to give many accounts of the inner working of the great fighting ships, with glimpses of the daily life of our gallant sailors. The second, Mr. W. L. Wyllie, R.A., cruised in all types of craft of the Royal Navy, from the largest and newest of the super-Dreadnoughts and battle-cruisers to submarines, "Q" ships and motor launches. He has been chiefly concerned with the portrayal of the war at sea. His pictures have been in almost every case painted on the spot from the actual ships, the guns being specially trained and elevated to the correct position. The third, Mr. Charles Owen, has devoted all his attention to sorting out the fragmentary scraps of information, putting them into proper order, and giving a smoothness to the narrative. We offer our combined efforts to the thoughtful among our fellow-countrymen, in the hope that they may help the men and women of Great Britain to understand how much they owe to the Silent Service, which carried on through four long years of waiting and watching, interspersed with desperate fighting, and finally brought the great German Empire to hopeless ruin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea Fights of the Great War: Naval Incidents During the First Nine Months It is not pretended that this is a complete history of the war at sea. In the fever of a gigantic struggle our vision is too close, our judgment perhaps too prejudiced for true history, but we may be later a help to others. Without the very kind permission of the Right Honourable A. J. Balfour and my Lords of the Admiralty, who allowed one of the authors to make cruises in His Majesty's ships, the pictures could not have been made or the details collected.

Download or read book Jutland written by Nicholas Jellicoe and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-30 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A compelling, dramatic account of the Royal Navy's last great sea battle.” —Robert K. Massie, Pulitzer Prize–winning and New York Times–bestselling author of Dreadnought More than a century later, historians still argue about this controversial and misunderstood World War I naval battle off the coast of Denmark. It was the twentieth century’s first engagement of dreadnoughts—and while it left Britain in control of the North Sea, both sides claimed victory and decades of disputes followed, revolving around senior commanders Admiral Sir John Jellicoe and Vice Admiral Sir David Beatty. This book not only retells the story of the battle from both a British and German perspective based on the latest research, but also helps clarify the context of Germany’s inevitable naval clash and the aftermath after the smoke had cleared.

Download or read book The Battle of Jutland written by John Brooks and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-09 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a major new account of the Battle of Jutland, the key naval battle of the First World War in which the British Grand Fleet engaged the German High Seas Fleet off the coast of Denmark in 1916. Beginning with the building of the two fleets, John Brooks reveals the key technologies employed, from ammunition, gunnery and fire control, to signalling and torpedoes, as well as the opposing commanders' tactical expectations and battle orders. In describing Jutland's five major phases, he offers important new interpretations of the battle itself and how the outcome was influenced by technology, as well as the tactics and leadership of the principal commanders, with the reliability of their own accounts of the fighting reassessed. The book draws on contemporary sources which have rarely been cited in previous accounts, including the despatches of both the British and German formations, along with official records, letters and memoirs.
Download or read book The Jutland Scandal written by John Harper and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-07-12 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two high-ranking officers defied the British Admiralty to tell the tale of World War I’s first naval battle against Germany. The Royal Navy had ruled the sea unchallenged for one hundred years since Nelson triumphed at Trafalgar. Yet when the Grand Fleet faced the German High Seas Fleet across the grey waters of the North Sea near Jutland, the British battleships and cruisers were battered into a draw, losing far more men and ships than the enemy. The Grand Fleet far outnumbered and outgunned the German fleet, so something clearly had gone wrong. The public waited for the official histories of the battle to be released to learn the truth, but month after month went by with the Admiralty promising, but failing, to publish an account of Jutland. Questions were raised in Parliament (twenty-two times), yet still no official report was produced, due to objections from Admiral Beatty. This led to Admiral Bacon producing his own account of the battle, called The Jutland Scandal, in 1925. Two years later the man instructed to write the official report, Rear-Admiral Harper, decided to publish his account independently, under the title The Truth about Jutland. Together, these two books lay bare the facts about Jutland and reveal the failings of senior officers and the distortions of the early historians. Produced as one volume for the first time, this book tells the truth about the scandal that developed following the largest battle ever fought at sea. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more.
