About this ebook
This work presents a detailed account of the naval operations of Great Britain during Worl War I. The Silent Watchers never stayed in the limelight or had any notable interactions. It was a team of Naval officers who performed their duties silently and observed the most minute activities in the sea. They silently dealt with the German ships. The Navy was always fast and acquired more gun power and more strength.
