The Royal Navy Officer's Pocket Book
There is no single document that sums up the experience of the Royal Navy officers during the Second World War. The speed at which new recruits passed through the training colleges to meet the voracious demands of war, meant few had a chance to gain real sea experience before they were thrust into positions of responsibility. To meet an obvious need, a number of official pamphlets were issued during the course of war that provided sound advice to the officer class on a wide variety of subjects from the niceties of naval culture and etiquette, and the rules on administration and ship-handling, to the harsh realities of battle casualties and insubordination.
Those key editions are faithfully reproduced in this single volume and set in context by leading naval historian, Brian Lavery. Together they provide an authentic presentation of life in the wartime navy and issues of leadership, discipline and initiative.

The Rules of the Game - Jutland & British Naval Command
Author: Andrew Gordon
Paperback
720 pages, Illustrations, Maps, Portraits.

A fascinating exploration of a devastating conflict in command styles during the Battle of Jutland When hundreds of warships belonging to the two most powerful fleets in the world clashed off the coast of Denmark in 1916, the encounter had the potential to reshape the political map forever. However, there were devastating failures of communication and command and, while the Battle of Jutland met Britain's strategic need for continued maritime dominance, the Royal Navy failed to crush its numerically inferior German opponent. The encounter has remained an enduring source of controversy ever since.

A remarkable saga of genius, tragedy and passive corruption emerges. In telling this remarkable story of Nelsonic pragmatism overwhelmed by peacetime vested interests, Andrew Gordon shows what had changed for the worse in the 'rules of the game' during a long century of peace, and draws fascinating and challenging conclusions.
