Rezension zu „Castles of Steel: Britain, Germany, and the Winning of the Great War at Sea “
Praise for Robert K. Massie's Dreadnought"Dreadnought is history in the grand manner, as most people prefer it: how people shaped, or were shaped by, events." "--Time""A classic [that] covers superbly a whole era . . . engrossing in its glittering gallery of characters." "--Chicago Sun-Times""[Told] on a grand scale . . . Massie [is] a master of historical portraiture and anecdotage." "--The Wall Street Journal""Brilliant on everything he writes about ships and the sea. It is Massie's eye for detail that makes his nautical set pieces so marvelously evocative." "--Los Angeles Times""From the Hardcover edition."
