The Royal Navy and Nazi Germany, 1933-39

Meer over het boek

The book delves into the Royal Navy's strategic response to the growing threat of the German navy during Hitler's regime, set against the backdrop of Britain's appeasement policy. It intricately weaves together a narrative of diplomatic events and Whitehall decision-making, while also analyzing naval intelligence and war planning. The author presents a nuanced argument that the Admiralty's support for naval armaments diplomacy with Nazi Germany was driven by a more rational and complex reasoning than earlier studies have indicated.
