The Rules of the Game: Jutland and British Naval Command

Andrew Gordon

When hundreds of warships clashed off the coast of Denmark in 1916, the British Grand Fleet should easily have crushed its German rival. Why did it fail to do so?

This is the defining account of the Battle of Jutland, one of the most controversial conflicts in naval history.
