The Battle of the Falkland Islands, Before and After

This plain, unvarnished account, so far as is known, is the first attempt that has been made to link with the description of the Falkland Islands battle, fought on December 8th, 1914, the events leading up to that engagement. In order to preserve accuracy as far as possible, each phase presented has been read and approved by officers who participated. The personal views expressed on debatable subjects, such as strategy, are sure to give rise to criticism, but it must be remembered that at the time of writing the exact positions of the ships engaged in overseas operations were not fully known, even in the Service. The subject falls naturally into three divisions: Part I. deals briefly with the movements of British and German warships, and includes the duel fought by the Carmania, and the action that took place off Coronel. Part II. describes the Falkland Islands battle itself, and the subsequent fate of the German cruiser Dresden. Part III. contains the official dispatches bearing on these exploits. The words of Alfred Noyes have been referred to frequently, because they are in so many respects pro[xii]phetic, and also because of their influence in showing that the spirit of Drake still inspires the British Navy of to-day. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
