This is a naval history of Greece in the 1910s, a decade when the
geographic importance of the country and its naval capabilities
both increased considerably. The book's aim is to explain the
causes of these phenomena and their consequences in peace and war
with regard to the satisfaction of Greek national aims, the
Mediterranean naval situation and the Balkan balance of power. The
response of the great powers to the naval importance of Greece and
relations between Greece and those powers are also explored. This
is largely concerned with Anglo-Greek naval relations, an important
element of which was the activities of the British naval missions
to Greece. The competition between Britain, France, and Germany for
Greek naval procurements and naval influence, and Greek-Turkish
naval competition are also examined.
Ultimately, "Greek Naval Strategy and Policy 1910-1919" is an
examination of the difficulties and rewards of a small but growing
naval power's relations with Britain and other great naval powers
of the time.
