Greek Naval Strategy and Policy 1910-1919

A sharpВ analysis of Greek naval historyВ in the 1910s, a time when the importance of itsВ geographic positionВ and its navy increased greatly.

It explains the causes of these developmentsВ and their consequencesВ for Greek national aims, the Mediterranean naval situation and the Balkan balance of power. Within this context, it also examines the competition between Britain, France, and Germany for Greek naval procurements and influence, Greek-Turkish navalВ tensions and the responses of the great powers.

This volume also provides an in-depth analysis of the naval strategy, programme, education and organization of the Greek state and of the extent to which these were influenced byВ its ownВ Naval Staff, British naval missions, andВ native and foreign politicians.В It detailsВ the difficulties and rewards in the relationship ofВ this rising naval power with Britain and other great naval powers of the time.

This book will be of immense interest to advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in naval history and strategy.
