Description
Witness the dramatic end of the German High Seas Fleet at Scapa Flow through vivid eyewitness accounts.
In 1919, following Germany's surrender, its High Seas Fleet was interned at Scapa Flow in the Orkney Islands. To prevent the Allied Powers from seizing his ships, Admiral von Reuter orchestrated their scuttling, a secret operation carried out by skeleton crews. As the ships sank, a group of schoolchildren found themselves unexpectedly amidst an event of global significance.
The Great Scuttle vividly recounts this pivotal day, drawing upon firsthand narratives to immerse readers in the crisis. Through personal letters, archival materials, and contemporary photographs, the book brings to life the extraordinary events of that midsummer's day. Perfect for history buffs and anyone fascinated by naval history, this is a gripping account of a fleet's demise and the human stories intertwined within.
