Books in the Twentieth-Century Battles series

In "The First Battle of the Marne" French and British forces stopped the initial German drive on Paris in 1914. The Second Battle of the Marne marks the point at which the Allied armies stopped the massive German Ludendorff Offensives and turned to offensive operations themselves. This work gives an account of the bloody events of those days.

Called by some a 'Mediterranean Jutland,' the Battle of the Otranto Straits involved warships from Austria, Germany, Italy, Britain, and France. This is the story of the largest naval engagement in the Mediterranean during the First World War.
