Michael Joseph (1983, London)
Notes
As the title suggests, this book covers a complete century, including the Second World War. But there is a substantial section (over 80 pages plus another 30 dealing with the pre-war years) which relate specifically to the First World War. The book is well written by a former Royal Navy officer and is a valuable introduction to the subject of convoys in the war.
