Does The Jutland Scandal remain useful in light of later research, and does it include the German side?
Short answerYes; its authors interviewed German officers after the war and incorporated German operational evidence as well as British criticism.
NotesHarper and Bacon interviewed German officers after the war, so their work includes evidence from the German side. The example follows the High Seas Fleet's departure from the Jade and the battlecruisers advancing well ahead of the battleships. Five reconnaissance airships failed to locate the Grand Fleet, leaving Scheer unaware that it was approaching. That attention to German movements and information, together with the appendices, gives the book continuing research value.
