Tucker and HMS Lion

Meer over het boek

HMS Lion was the most famous battle cruiser of the British Grand Fleet in World War I with its shattering long-range guns. Join her young officers for a drink in the wardroom as they wonder whether the German High Seas Fleet will ever come to meet them. Meet the Russian Tsar in St Petersburg and witness the first major clash of German and British ships in the North Sea. Tucker and HMS Lion brings the events of 100 years ago as close as yesterday's headlines. At the heart of the story - which also includes an aerial dog-fight - is a daring plan to bring the war to an end.
