In November 1914 Admiral Spee and his gallant men of the Kaiserliche Marine Navy challenged the Royal Navy's long-held supremacy at sea when his cruisers inflicted the only defeat the Royal Navy had known in over 100 years. This lively overview of the ensuing struggle includes the devastation of the Konigsberg, which convinced the Germans to concentrate on their more deadly U-boats.
