Death of a Fleet 1917-1919

Schubert, P. and L. Gibson: 1933 London, hardcover 288 pages with photo's and index. Mutiny, dreaded by commanders, spread through the great German fleet. The ships rendered useless by the revolt of their crews, were surrendered to the British and finally sunk in the dramatic sabotage of Scapa Flow; a vivid and accurate account of the death of the Imperial Navy. This historical account details the dramatic internal collapse and ultimate self-destruction of the Imperial German Navy's surface fleet during the final years of the First World War. By examining the widespread sailors' mutinies of 1917, the subsequent communist uprisings, and the final mass scuttling of the warships at Scapa Flow in 1919, the authors illustrate how a once-mighty armada disintegrated from within.
