Dreadnought is a riveting chronicle of the personal and national rivalries that led to the twentieth century's first great arms race. Authored by the Pulitzer Prize-winning Robert K. Massie, this book is a richly textured and gripping narrative that brings to life a host of historical figures.

Experience the single-minded Admiral von Tirpitz, the young and ambitious Winston Churchill, and the ruthless Chancellor Bernhard von Bülow, among others. Their stories, along with the story of the era, filled with misunderstandings, missed opportunities, and events leading to unintended conclusions, unfold like a Greek tragedy.

Intimately human and dramatic, Dreadnought is history at its most compelling, capturing the essence of extraordinary lives and the complexities of a transformative era.
