Armored cruisers of Germany. Part I. 1893-1921.
29.99 €
...On October 23, 1915, the course of the unlucky cruiser was crossed by a torpedo from the British submarine E-8. This time the torpedo was apparently not seen. The cruiser was lost almost instantly, as the explosion of the torpedo detonated the cellars. Of the 675 people on board, only three survived. Thus ended the life of "Prince Adalbert"....

And of the total of five cruisers that took part in the First World War, to which the book is devoted, three perished. Fast and well-protected and armed ships of moderate displacement were powerless against mines.

The book is devoted to the history of design, construction and combat service of the first armored cruisers of Germany, built in the period from the late 1890s to 1906. Their tactical and technical data are given, the ships' design and service are described, including naval operations in the Baltic Sea in World War I, in which these ships participated.

For a wide range of readers interested in military history.
