Battle for the Baltic Islands 1917. Triumph of the Imperial German Navy

In 1917, despite the Revolution, the Russians continued to fight against the Germans. This book is about Operation Albion, the German seaborne operation that changed their minds. The Baltic Islands were pivotal for the defence of St. Petersburg and the Finnish Gulf. This campaign accordingly had great significance for the war in the East, and it was, in fact, only after the fall of the Baltic Islands that the Russians began peace negotiations, thus freeing hundreds of thousands of troops for the Kaiser's last gamble on the Western Front in the following year.
