It was a climactic encounter, the culmination of a fantastically expensive naval race between the two countries, and expectations on both sides were high. For the Royal Navy's Grand Fleet, there was the chance to win another Trafalgar. For the German High Seas Fleet, there was the opportunity to break the British blockade and so change the course of the war. But Jutland was a confused and controversial encounter. Tactically, it was a draw; strategically, it was a British victory. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNaval historians have pored over the minutiae of Jutland ever since. Yet they have largely ignored what the battle was actually like for its thousands of participants. Full of drama and pathos, of chaos and courage, JUTLAND, 1916 describes the sea battle in the dreadnought era from the point of view of those who were there.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nigel Steer, Peter Hart\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 030436648X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780304366484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e George Weidenfeld \u0026amp; Nicholson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 480\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.88h x 5.18w x 1.21d","brand":"Nigel Steer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43913611804927,"sku":"9780304366484","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_112e8339-c965-4218-b5cc-47750a90b177.jpg?v=1680621357","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jutland-1916-nigel-steer-9780304366484","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
