Item description from seller

Zagreb 2018. 1 Volume/1. -- Softbound. Quarto size ( 28 x 23 cm )( 998 gr ) ----- 243 pages with 286 illustrations. ********************* "" The author, Zvonimir Freivogel, is a well-known naval historian whose articles have been published in many maritime history magazines from all around the world ( Die Flagge and Österreich maritim in Austria, Storia militare in Italy, Okrety Wojenne in Poland, WP in the Czech Republic, Marines et Histoire in France, Warship in the United Kingdom, Gangut in Russia, Warship International in the United States.) The book covers the role of Austro-Hungarian cruisers in a war which would be the Empire's last, with meticulous accounts of the ships' armament, crew, armor, and the role they played in the Great War. These ships were a crucial part of Austro-Hungarian raids on Italian cities on the western coast of the Adraiticand were heavily involved in the Battle of the Ottranto Straits, the largest surface action in the Adriatic during WWI. Besides dealing with every major operation these ships participated in throughout the war, the book also covers several noteworthy events such as the sailors' mutiny in the Bocche di Cattaroin February 1918. Freivogel also included the pre-war history of each cruiser the circumstances under which these ships were built, their previous missions (which stretched as far as Asia), and even the broader shipbuilding trends of the Austro-Hungarian Navy of the late 18th and early 19th century. Equipped with more than 250 photographs many of which published for the first time ever we beilive this book will be an interesting read for both naval history buffs and those who are curious to find out more about naval warfare in the Adriatic during WWI."" *****************************.…
