Hardcover. Condizione: Poor. No Jacket. First Edition. The Boy Allies at Jutland; or, The Greatest Naval Battle of History follows British midshipmen Jack Templeton and Frank Chadwick as they serve aboard Royal Navy vessels during the Battle of Jutland (1916). The story blends factual naval action with fictional heroism - torpedo attacks, ship duels, and daring rescues - while emphasizing courage, loyalty, and patriotism. Drake's prose mirrors wartime propaganda aimed at inspiring young Americans to admire Allied valor. The series was published by A. L. Burt Company, New York, with vivid cover art and frontispiece illustrations typical of 1910s adventure fiction. THIS book' cover is in poor condition (it looks like it barely survived Jutland itself) but the pages are in excellent condition with edge damage to the first section of pages.
