Danger Zone: The Story Of The Queenstown Command (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781164514022)

""Danger Zone: The Story Of The Queenstown Command"" by E. Keble Chatterton is a historical account of the Royal Navy's activities during World War I in Queenstown (now Cobh), Ireland. The book chronicles the efforts of the Queenstown Command, which was responsible for protecting British and Allied ships from German U-boat attacks in the western approaches to the British Isles. The author provides a detailed account of the Command's activities, including the development of new anti-submarine tactics and technologies, the training of naval personnel, and the coordination of operations with Allied forces. The book also highlights the bravery and sacrifices of the sailors who served in the Queenstown Command, many of whom faced great danger and hardship during the war.Overall, ""Danger Zone"" is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in naval history, World War I, or the role of Ireland in the conflict. It offers a unique perspective on the war from the viewpoint of a little-known but crucially important naval command, and sheds light on a lesser-known aspect of the conflict that is often overlooked in other historical accounts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
