{"product_id":"jutland-the-naval-staff-appreciation-9781848323179","title":"Jutland: The Naval Staff Appreciation","description":"\u003cp\u003eJutland  the largest naval battle of the First World War  was the most controversial engagement in the Royal Navys history. Falling well short of the total victory expected by the public  it rapidly sparked argument and ill-will within the Royal Navy  including disagreements among those in its highest echelons  many of whom had been directly involved in the battle. The first attempt to produce even an objective record was delayed and heavily censored  but this was followed by a more ambitious scheme to write a no-holds-barred critique of the fleets performance for use in training future officers at the Naval Staff College. This became the now infamous Naval Staff Appreciation  which was eventually deemed too damaging  its publication canceled and all proof copies ordered destroyed. Mentioned in virtually every book on Jutland since  but unavailable to their authors  the document has developed an almost legendary status of a book too explosive to publish. However  despite the order to destroy  a few copies survived. Transcribed from one of the copies  Jutland reveals this long-hidden work for the first time. It contains expert modern commentary and explanatory notes to put it in proper context. Now everyone interested in Jutland can read this book and judge for themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45666188591157,"sku":"ByrdShop_1848323174","price":41.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781848323179.jpg?v=1782422143","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/jutland-the-naval-staff-appreciation-9781848323179","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
