Paul Brown, Journal of the Britannia Naval Research Association

This title contributes nicely to the overall picture and should be recommended to readers who are interested in exactly this (perhaps) slightly overlooked part of the First World War's regional consequences.

Simon Papousek, Danish Military History Society

...a highly readable introduction which tells the story well and deftly highlights many of the important issues. Recommended.

Andrew Livsey, The Naval Review
