The Sunken Fleet is a historical non-fiction book written by Helmut Lorenz. The book tells the story of the German High Seas Fleet, which was scuttled by its own sailors in Scapa Flow, Scotland, on June 21, 1919, following the end of World War I. The author provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the sinking of the fleet, including the Treaty of Versailles and the negotiations between the German government and the Allies. He also describes the conditions on board the ships, the morale of the sailors, and the decision-making process that led to the scuttling. Lorenz goes on to explore the aftermath of the sinking, including the salvage operations and the international reactions to the event. He also examines the impact of the scuttling on German naval history and the legacy of the High Seas Fleet. The Sunken Fleet is a well-researched and comprehensive account of one of the most significant events in naval history. It provides a fascinating insight into the politics, technology, and human drama of the time, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of World War I or naval warfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
