Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. 382 pages, several illustrations & portraits. This book examines the strategic, political, and psychological dimensions of the Anglo-German naval rivalry that dominated European geopolitics in the early 20th century. The book explores how Germany's naval expansion under Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz challenged Britain's long-standing maritime supremacy, prompting a dramatic escalation in warship production and naval doctrine. Padfield analyzes the motivations behind Germany's naval ambitions, the British response led by figures like Admiral John Fisher, and the broader implications for diplomacy and military planning. He also delves into the public discourse, media influence, and nationalist fervor that fueled the arms race, showing how naval power became a symbol of national prestige and security.
