ANGUS KONSTAM is a widely published and respected military and
naval historian, with numerous books to his credit. A former Royal
Naval officer, maritime archaeologist and museum curator, he holds
degrees from three universities, including a Masters degree from
St. Andrews.
He is the author of several major books, including a biography of
Blackbeard, histories of piracy, Renaissance ships and the Scottish
soldier, and studies of the battles of North Cape and Salerno. He
has also written over 50 books for Osprey Publishing, including
reference works on the dreadnought battleships of the First World
War.
He has given numerous public lectures in Britain, as well as in
Europe and North America, and his work has been translated into
several languages.
He is frequently interviewed by the press in his capacity as a
maritime historian, and has appeared live on both television and
radio. He also made frequent appearances in television
documentaries screened by the BBC and ITV, as well as the History
and Discovery Channels.
“Konstam's excellent analysis of the battle and who actually won is
nearly worth the price of the book alone [...] if you only buy one
book about the First World War this year, make it this one.”
