Description
Beginning with the great "Dreadnought race" before the First World War, which set the theme for the conflict with Germany that dominated most of the 20th century, the book follows the sea conflicts of the Great War, through Britain's "finest hour" in the Battle of the Atlantic to the cuts of the post-war era, then the final heroic but anachronistic flourish of the Falklands, and to the present day.Tags
