If you want to delve into the (European) history of the mid-nineteenth century through the start of WW1, this is a must-read.

It cannot be said that this is about the development of a battleship, but rather how so many elements came together to clash in "the War to end all Wars"...

It deals with the personalities involved - the royal families of Russia, UK, Germany, etc., the prime ministers, defense ministers, etc., and the people...

I'm on my second reading of it  - first reading was about five years ago...

Sounds like my cup of tea, thanks for the heads up.

Erm... Not wanting to ruin anything but what is this book called?


Another book you might want to read if you like Dreadnoughts and have nothing better to do with your time is "Jutland: An analysis of the fighting" Which is essentially a shot by shot account of what happened there.
