Robert K Massie - Dreadnought torrent

Dreadnought: Britain, Germany and the Coming of the Great War

by Robert K. Massie.


Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Robert K. Massie has written a richly
textured and gripping chronicle of the personal and national rivalries
that led to the twentieth century's first great arms race. Massie
brings to vivid life, such historical figures as the single-minded
Admiral von Tirpitz, the young, ambitious, Winston Churchill, the
ruthless, sycophantic Chancellor Bernhard von Bulow, and many others.
Their story, and the story of the era, filled with misunderstandings,
missed opportunities, and events leading to unintended conclusions,
unfolds like a Greek tragedy in his powerful narrative. Intimately
human and dramatic, DREADNOUGHT is history at its most riveting.
