KEEGAN, John. The Price of Admiralty: War at Sea from Man of War to Submarine. xii, 292p., bibliog., illus., index. London: Hutchinson; New York: Viking, 1988. ISBN: 0091737710.

Using the techniques from his much praised military work The Face of Battle, Keegan considers Trafalgar, Jutland, Midway, and the Battle of the Atlantic, especially convoys SC122 and HX229. Very readable, but shows the pitfalls facing an author working in an unfamiliar field.
