This book fills a gap in the literature by covering the full range of cruising vessels operated or ordered by the Imperial German Navy between 1871 and 1918. The authors provide a detailed narrative of design, operational history, and technical details, including rare photographs and tabulated data on ship specifications. The book also includes sketches of ships' internal layouts and armour, offering a unique insight into the development of this ship class. With extensive use of archival material, this study presents a developmental history of German cruisers that is unparalleled in English-language literature.
