A worthy companion for anyone studying the battle ... highly

*Warship World*
This beautifully produced book has made a major contribution to our
understanding of the battle, adding archaeological rigour to events
usually discussed in terms of chance, human error and uncertainty.
Old myths have been dispatched, fake photographs exposed and the
fog of war lifted.
*International Journal of Nautical Archaeology*
Dr McCartney has presented the information in a clear and concise
manner, supported his arguments with persuasive evidence, and has
written an entertaining piece of literature. I cannot recommend it
highly enough, for it not only exhibits the work of marine
archaeologists, it also brings fresh insights into the battle of
Jutland.
