O knihe

The Battle of Jutland informally known by participants as Der Tag (The Day), was the largest naval battle of World War I, and the only full-scale clash of battleships in that war. It was the fourth major fleet action between steel battleships, following the battles of Port Arthur, Yellow Sea, and Tsushima during the Russo-Japanese War. It was fought on 31 May - 1 June 1916, in the North Sea near Jutland, Denmark. The combatants were the Imperial German Navy's High Seas Fleet, commanded by Vice-Admiral Reinhard Scheer, and the British Royal Navy's Grand Fleet, commanded by Admiral Sir John Jellicoe. The German fleet's intention was to lure out, trap and destroy a portion of the Grand Fleet, as the German numbers were insufficient to engage the entire British fleet at one time. This formed part of a larger strategy to break the British blockade of Germany and to allow German mercantile shipping to operate. Meanwhile, the Royal Navy pursued a strategy to engage and destroy the High Seas Fleet, or keep the German force bottled up and away from Britain's own shipping lanes.
