Pacific Thunder
The War With Hitler's Navy
James Goldrick
The Naval War in North European Waters, June 1916–November 1918
This is the story of the naval war in northern European waters following the critical if inconclusive battle of Jutland.
The author deals with the entry into the conflict of the United States and the increasing commitment of the US Navy to operations in Northern European waters. Many of the foundations of success in the next war were laid by the USN at this time, and there are strong links between the performance of all the navies and their experiences in 1939-45.
In addition to his huge historical knowledge, the author brings his own extensive personal experience of naval operations and command at sea to this study, and this fusion of history with practical understanding sheds a unique and fascinating perspective on his analysis of the conflict.
