Coronel and Falkland by Barrie Pitt 

Requirements:  .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW3 reader

Overview:  1914.
Britain’s Naval supremacy is being challenged for the first time since Trafalgar.
At large in South American waters within reach of the convoy routes across the Atlantic and the Pacific was Vice-Admiral Graf von Spee with the East Asiatic Cruiser Squadron of the Imperial German Navy, including the armoured cruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisenau.
Graf von Spee’s belief that a cruiser squadron was of more strategic value than independent raiders seemed amply justified at Coronel on 1st November, when the powerful German unit inflicted a heavy defeat on four courageous but weaker British ships under Rear-Admiral Sir Christopher Cradock.
