Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This thrilling historical account recollects some of the most influential naval engagements of World War I, beginning with the lesser-known and dynamic role of the Royal Navy's Auxiliary Patrol. The author places the reader amid epic sea battles such as the pursuit of the German raiders Emden and Konigsberg, the intense skirmishes of the British submarines in the Heligoland Bight, and the pivotal confrontations of Coronel and the Falkland Islands. While introducing the major players in this gripping narrative, the author also sheds light on the critical but unsung efforts of the Auxiliary Patrol, a force of trawlers, drifters, and other vessels that patrolled coastal waters and played a decisive role in securing the British Isles and supporting larger naval operations. The book further explores the significant tactics and technological advancements that transformed naval warfare during this period.
