War, Mutiny and Revolution in the German Navy - The World War I Diary of Seaman Richard Stumpf; Edited, Translated and with an Introduction by DANIEL HORN: In 1928, when the Reichstag Investigating Committee concluded its nine-year-long hearing to determine the causes of Germany's defeat and collapse during World War I, its official proceedings included only one personal memoir — the complete wartime diary of Richard Stumpf, a tinsmith who had spent six years in the navy as an ordinary seaman. He thus provided the first opportunity to view the war from the position of the common people, the class that had been alienated and driven to revolt.
MYTHS & LEGENDS of the First World War by James Hayward: Most atrocity propaganda was discredited and forgotten soon after the war, but many myths had long-lasting effects and some remain well-known. Did an entire battalion of the Norfolk Regiment vanish without trace at Gallipoli? Did thousands of Russian troops really pass through England with snow on their boots.

BY GUESS AND BY GOD - The Story of the British Submarines in the War: During the Great War German submarines were very successful and, despite some censorship and because of Britain's propaganda stance, always made the headlines, as opposed to Britain's smaller service. The author, William Guy Carr, who served in submarines during WW1, attempts to redress this imbalance. He describes Royal Navy submarine operations in all theatres. Good on Dardanelles, Nesmith and for Horton's early career."

THE AUXILIARY PATROL by E. Keble Chatterton: 'We knew during the war that German officers and men of the U-boat service held our Auxiliary Patrol in awe, because they frequently ran away from our improvised craft, and on occasions when these armed yachts, fishing vessels, or motor craft destroyed enemy submarines, the prisoners were only too ready to admit their feelings verbally.' - from the introduction.
