The Battle of Jutland, 31 May and 1 June 1916, was to have been a set piece battle at a time and place of German choosing, intended to lure the British Grand Fleet into a lethal trap in German waters. In the event it proved only to be the last capital ship big fleet battle of the twentieth century. Decisive victory was claimed by both sides, but in truth, desperately fought though it was, the battle was a confused and rambling conflict, dogged on both sides by bad luck, bad weather and poor communications. The Royal Navy suffered higher losses in men and ships, but the German fleet never ventured out of harbour to seek battle again.

Naval historian V E Tarrant's superb study tells the story of the battle from the German perspective, using previously unseen German naval records, official German histories, action reports from individual German commanders and the letters and papers of Tirpitz, Scheer and Hipper. Illustrated throughout with detailed action charts, scale drawings and silhouettes of all major warships and classes from both sides, this book adds a new and detailed light to our understanding of what actually happened at the Battle of Jutland.
