Seller's Description:
New. Size: 6x1x9; Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Clean, unmarked pages. 362 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates: illustrations (some color), maps; 25 cm. "The Battle of Jutland (May31-June 1, 1916) was the largest naval battle of the First World War. It was the only time that the British and German fleets of 'dreadnought' battleships actually came to blows. The German High Seas Fleet hoped to weaken the Royal Navy by launching an ambush on the British Grand Fleet in the North Sea. German Admiral Reinhard Scheer planned to lure out both Admiral Sir David Beatty's Battlecruiser Force and Admiral Sir John Jellicoe's Grand Fleet. Scheer hoped to destroy Beatty's force before Jellicoe's arrived, but the British were warned by their codebreakers and put both forces to sea early. Jutland was a confused and bloody action involving 250 ships and around 100, 000 men. Initial encounters between Beatty's force and the German High Seas Fleet resulted in the loss of several ships. The Germans damaged Beatty's flagship, HMS Lion, and sank HMS Indefatigable and HMS Queen Mary, both of which blew up when German shells hit their ammunition magazines."-Imperial War Museum.
