Pershing Lecture Series | When Stalemate Equals Victory: The Battle of Jutland - John Kuehn

The Battle of Jutland in the North Sea on May 31 – June 1, 1916 was the largest sea battle since the Battle of Lepanto in the Mediterranean nearly 350 years earlier. Dr. John Kuehn sails through the naval operations that led to and included this engagement – which was the last of its size in terms of numbers of battleships engaging each other within line of sight in history – between Great Britain’s Royal Navy Grand Fleet and Imperial Germany’s High Seas Fleet.
