Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. ix, [1], 349, [1] pages. Includes list of Maps, Tables, and Illustrations, as well as Acknowledgments, Conclusion, Appendix: Conversions and Abbreviations, Notes, Bibliography, and Index. Chapters cover Austria-Hungary: Die Kaiserliche un…d Konigliche Kriegsmarine; France: La Marine Nationale; Germany: Kaiserliche Marine; Great Britain: The Royal Navy; Italy: Regia Marina; Russia: Rossiiskii imperatorskii flot; United States: The U.S. Navy; Other Navies; and Conclusion. Includes 7 maps, 74 Tables, and 32 Illustrations. O'Hara has led a team of experts in writing a uniform and comprehensive study of each of the major and minor navies of World War I. Each navy is described, from their history to their warships and their design; ports and resources that they had available; their training, strategic and tactical doctrine, and conduct of the war on, over, and under the waves. This is an excellent introduction to the navies of all of the major and minor powers of World War I. Vincent P. O'Hara (born 24 December 1951) is a naval author and historian. Vincent O'Hara has a degree in History from the University of California, Berkeley. O'Hara has authored, co-authored or edited twelve books and contributed articles to publications, including Naval War College Review, Storia Militare, Seaforth World Naval Review, America in WWII, World War II, and World War II History. He was an assistant editor of ABC Clio's Encyclopedia of World War II at Sea and wrote introductions to two volumes of the U.S. Naval Operations in World War II series by Samuel E. Morison republished by the Naval Institute. The only comparative analysis available of the great navies of World War I--each chapter is written by a recognized expert fluent in the subject language. The work studies the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom (John Roberts), the German Kaiserliche Marine (Dr. Peter Schenk with Axel Niestlé and Dieter Thomaier) the United States Navy (Trent Hone), the French Marine Nationale (Jean Moulin), the Italian Regia Marina (Enrico Cernuschi and Vincent P. O'Hara) the Austro-Hungarian Kaiserliche und Königliche Kriegsmarine (Zvonimir Freivogel), and the Imperial Russian Navy (Stephen McLaughlin) to demonstrate why the war was won, not in the trenches, but upon the waves. It explains why these seven fleets fought the way they did and why the war at sea did not develop as the admiralties and politicians of 1914 expected. After discussing each navy's goals and circumstances and how their individual characteristics impacted the way they fought, the authors deliver a side-by-side analysis of the conflict's fleets, with each chapter covering a single navy. Parallel chapter structures assure consistent coverage of each fleet--history, training, organization, doctrine, materiel, and operations--and allow readers to easily compare information among the various navies. The book clearly demonstrates how the naval war was a collision of 19th century concepts with 20th century weapons that fostered unprecedented development within each navy and sparked the evolution of the submarine and aircraft carrier. The work is free from the national bias that infects so many other books on World War I navies. As they pioneer new ways of viewing the conflict, the authors provide insights and material that would otherwise require a massive library and mastery of multiple languages. Such a study has special relevance today as 20th-century navies struggle to adapt to 21st-century technologies.
