Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The name of HMS Dreadnought is closely associated with the age of empire, the Anglo-German antagonism and the pre-First World War naval arms race.

This volume investigates these contexts and their intersection in this symbolically charged icon of the Edwardian age.
