Jutland

The Unfinished Battle

De: Nick Jellicoe

Narrado por: Michael Page

More than a century later, historians still argue about this controversial and misunderstood World War I naval battle off the coast of Denmark. It was the 20th century's first engagement of dreadnoughts - and while it left Britain in control of the North Sea, both sides claimed victory and decades of disputes followed, revolving around senior commanders Admiral Sir John Jellicoe and Vice Admiral Sir David Beatty.

This book not only retells the story of the battle from both a British and German perspective based on the latest research, but also helps clarify the context of Germany's inevitable naval clash and the aftermath after the smoke had cleared.

Great book.

I highly recommend this book. Full of great information. The voice actor does a great job.

Get the book

Finally a clearly written masterpiece

a definitive and well researched explanation of the mindsets of all combatants at Jutland.

Can't get more detailed than this

If you think you know something of Jutland, think again. This was hard to get into at first and is not your typical chronological history, but that has been done time and again on this subject already. I recommend reading this, but first, get a simpler primer on the battle. Then do a deep dive with this one. Narration was outstanding. I have spent the last six months reading books on Jutland and this was the icing on the cake.

Excellent and Informative

Nick Jelico does a great job at presenting the facts, as the direct descendant of one of the greatest and most influential Admirals of the 20th century one might expect him to be biased, however he is exceptionally clear minded and presents all of the information allowing the reader to come up with their own opinion. The narration of course is excellent, Michael Page never disappoints

Wonderful Book

Well told story it is eminently readable and the narrator is outstanding. I highly recommend this book. For a full story if the Great War at Sea, read Castles of Steel by Robert Massie.
