Description
It’s 1904.
Germany has built a fleet to rival the Royal Navy.
With this new threat to Britain, Germany are becoming increasingly powerful, hostile, and aggressive.
Japan had amazed the world with its attack on Russia.
What will happen next?
The Russian fleet was headed for Vigo.
Archy Buller’s first cruiser command, HMS Lily, part of the Channel Fleet at Gibraltar was preparing to intercept the Russian fleet.
War appeared imminent…
Archy Buller, Boer War hero with the Naval Brigade, and his friend Rod Maclewin, from the lower deck and the opposite end of the social scale, find themselves undergoing a whole new adventure.
German naval competition and the construction of ever greater fleets of Dreadnoughts, and the restlessness of new social pressures, take their toll, and Buller especially finds himself at once in the throes of domestic crisis and an undeclared security war with the nation’s future enemy.
This sequel to the highly praised Buller's Guns concludes on the high note of the first pursuit and clash of mighty Dreadnoughts in the North Sea…
Buller’s Dreadnought is a thrilling and dramatic account of the challenges posed by the Edwardian age and the First World War.
