"A most detailed historical account, beginning with Queen Victoria and ending with the start of World War I. It is quite long, and you may put it down before you finish, but have patience. It moves from slow to interesting to engrossing. I couldn't wait to see how it ended, even though I already knew. This is as much a book about personal relationships as it is about politics and the building of the British and German navies."
"ALONG WITH ITS COMPANION VOLUME - CASTLES OF STEEL - THIS IS A FIRST RATE HISTORY OF THE EVENTS AND PERSONALITIES OF THE NVAL FORCES IN WW I. YOU DON'T NEED TO CARE ABOUT THE WAR. THE BOOK WILL GRIP YOU ANYWAY. AND WAS THERE EVER SUCH A PERSONALITY AS JACKIE FISHER?"
