Dunn, SteveTRAGEDY AND REVENGE: The Battles of Coronel and the Falklands, 1914 Analyzes the Coronel and Falklands battles, naval strategy, leadership, and Royal Navy losses. Details both the battles and the events leading up to them, with the use of eyewitness accounts. Examines the ships which fought on both sides and points out the inferiority of the forces at Cradock's disposal, resources which Churchill insisted were fit for the task. Also looks at the leaders: Cradock, Churchill, Fisher, Sturdee, and von Spee, and the interplay of character between them. Evaluates the gap between the reality on the high seas and the perception held by those at the Admiralty, especially Churchill, and how this gap helped bring about a terrible tragedy.
