For the maritime enthusiasts and those interested in the background to

For anyone interested in the martitime aspects of the war and/or the relationship between the United Kingdom and Imperial Germany in the period immediately prior to the war I strongly recommend this outstanding book by David Gregory:

The Lion and The Eagle

Anglo-German Naval Naval Confrontation in the Imperial Era

Volume 1 - The Protagonists 1815-1914

ISBN: 978-0957286412

This is much more than a story about the two naval powers, it provides a superb analysis of the wider relationships between the two nations. Importantly, it is very 'readable' and well illustrated.
