Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Battle of the North Sea in 1914 Twenty years ago the idea of war between Great Britain and Germany seemed impossible. Indeed our whole concern then was to guard against a possible struggle with France and Russia, countries which might legitimately have felt aggrieved against us. We had fought against both, and not been worsted; supported Turkey against one, and, having opposed the construction of the Suez Canal when de Lesseps sought our help, we gradually became predominant in Egypt. With Germany, on the other hand, we were allied by memories of mutual help against aggression. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from With Beatty in the North Sea Although this book covers so short a period of the North Sea warfare the period is vital in that it em braces the discovery Of nearly all our naval short comings, and the initiation of the means taken to overcome them. The point of view that of the spearhead of the British Naval forces necessarily includes a wide angle of outlook, in which the detail of things must diminish in proportion as they recede from the view-point. But just as one full and inti mate picture of the life of one ship for one month would give the reader a more human insight into the Navy than a general survey Of the whole Fleet for four years, so the narrative of an eye-witness whose place was for six months on the very point of that bright spearhead should have a value apart from, and supplementary to, the official and technical histories which are being compiled. My aim in this narrative has been to draw as few conclusions myself, and to present as much material from which others may draw them, as is humanly possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Naval History of the War, 1914-1918 Our late enemies were always determined to keep war wholly upon the profess1onal plane, to emphasise the scientific and exclude the moral view. Among us, too, there have been militarists to whom the same doctrine has approved itself. But this war should have opened their eyes, for the struggle, though it seemed to have its origin in smaller causes, was quickly seen, even by Germans, to be a conflict between two conceptions of world-politics that is to say, between two conceptions of human life. After seeing the two con ceptions illustrated upon a gigantic scale, the judgement of mankind appears to have reaffirmed the old code of humanity and chivalry, and condemned the new philosophy of Might and the new method of Frightfulness. But whether this mood lasts or not, whether the issue is already decided or must still be fought out in some more terrible war of liberation, there can be no doubt of the nature of the fight, or of the Opportunity presented to the historian.

Download or read book Naval Power in the War written by Charles Clifford Gill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-11 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Naval Power in the War: 1914-1917 Undertaking these studies before the entry of the United States into the war, the author has maintained throughout the standpoint of the tech nical student of naval warfare, rather than that of the philosophical historian. Needless to say, he is not without strong sympathies and convic tions but these, from the nature of the investiga tion, are subordinated to the search for truth. In other words, the book is not partisan and' is not propaganda; it has no special thesis to maintain - except an underlying belief in the importance of naval power to a nation whose boundaries are the two oceans, and whose interests extend throughout the Seven Seas. The wisdom of attempting to write naval his tory at such close range may be questioned. The question may be answered by pointing out that the book aims to draw the significant naval les sons, rather than to chronicle events in minute de tail. Whatever the paucity of the data, it is im portant that these lessons should be drawn im mediately. Frank discussion clears the air.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naval Blockade, 1914-1918 The story of the economic blockade in its relation to the war at sea would be a comparatively simple one to tell if it were confined solely to the action taken by the Allied cruising squadrons with regard to hostile and neutral merchant shipping: we should merely have to set forth the instructions given by the Allied gov ernments to their cruisers and see how the economic life of Germany was affected in consequence. The story becomes necessarily more involved owing to the part played by factors other than the purely naval one in the economic encirclement of the Central Empires.

Download or read book Three Years of Naval Warfare Classic Reprint written by R. H. Gibson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Years of Naval Warfare A history of the naval war since 1914 is of a very far reaching character, but I have endeavoured to localise the many campaigns into separate chapters, although a small amount of overlapping is unavoidable. The stupendous events of the last few years have followed one another in such rapid succession that few people realise the enormous task which our Navy was called upon to perform. From the terribly sudden collapse of the whole fabric of Germany's commerce the success of this work must be evident; and although in 1915 many of our ships were still engaged on foreign service, practically all naval matters centralised in home waters. The book is divided into two parts, the first dealing with the work of the Royal Navy around our shores, and the second part treating the British and Allied Fleets abroad. The veil over our Fleet remains as inscrutable as ever, and One is tempted to question the need for such absolute secrecy. The enemy is, Of course, greatly hindered in learn ing Of the dispositions and strength Of our squadrons and patrols, but the disappointment which the public feels is keen. It tends to make us overlook the wonderful patience of our sailors in their long and weary vigil for the hiding foe. Some'day let us hope that we shall be told the full story of the glorious deeds Of our men who had kept the seas in fair weather and foul, in winter and summer, by night and day, in the hope of encountering the enemy, in the enforcing of the blockade, in the protection of our vast overseas trade, in the supplying of our overseas forces, and in keeping our coasts immune from the inhuman and murderous invader.
