A superb read, very detailed and knowledgeable without being to dry.
Plenty of images and diagrams explaining the action (especially Jutland)
I know a fair bit about the Royal Navy in the First World War and I still learnt something new.
Good first hand accounts interspersed with details of the action and the decisions made before and due to the actions.
A very good introductory book for anyone wishing to learn about naval warfare in WW1 or anyone just wishing to learn more about history.
Thank you to the publisher and to netgalley for the ARC of this book.

There are so many aspects of war, and the navy is just one part of it. There are times when having a strong navy comes in handy - and this was evident during the first world war.

With the added benefit of having first-hand accounts, this book pulls together the battle for the seas perfectly! For those that love naval warfare, you are in for a sure-fire treat with this book!

I truly enjoyed reading through this one, as it not only satisfied the history lover in me but gave me a better understanding of the naval powers in World War I. Having done a lot of research into naval warfare in WWII, it was nice to see and connect the dots on advancements and needed advancements that were targeted, the difference in how battles were conducted, and how the powers that be did their best to dominate the seas.

This book is perfect for the military history lover in your life, and a perfect addition to any home library!

A well done novel that does an excellent job of telling about the WW1 naval warfare and the politics behind the decisions. The first hand accounts add to the realism of the story. This is a really well done book and a great read for the naval or history fan.

Thank you to #NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
