From Library Journal:

Utilizing the 1914-18 Personal Experience Archives at Sunderland Polytechnic in England, historian Liddle tells the story of the Royal Navy in the Great War. Diaries, letters, and recollections of young officers and enlisted men give a personal slant on service in the different theaters and operations. The narrative provides an overview of the naval war, while the archival material recounts the view of actions and life at sea from the perspective of mess deck and gun room. Photos and drawings complement the text throughout. Of interest mainly to naval and military collections. George F. Scheck, Naval War Coll. Lib., Newport, R.I.
