The Late Victorian Navy: the Pre-dreadnought Era and the Origins of the First World War
Roger Parkinson
In naval terms, the period from 1889 to 1906 is often referred to as the 'pre-Dreadnought era', a prelude to the lead-up to the First World War. This book reviews the Great Near East crisis of 1878 and shows how its aftermath in the Carnarvon Commission produced a profound shift in strategic thinking, culminating in the Naval Defence Act of 1889.
