The "Straits Trilogy" by
Geoffrey Miller
- Volume I: Superior Force : the
conspiracy behind the escape of Goeben
and Breslau
- Volume II: Straits : British Policy
towards the Ottoman Empire and the
Origins of the Dardanelles Campaign
- Volume III: The Millstone : British
Naval Policy in the Mediterranean,
1900-1914, the Commitment to France and
British Intervention in the War
These books provide a comprehensive
account of British naval and diplomatic
policy in the two decades prior to the Great
War, focusing in particular on the escape of
the German ships Goeben and Breslau
[Superior Force], the origins of the
Dardanelles Campaign [Straits], and the
political and diplomatic imperatives behind
the British decision to enter the war in
August 1914 [The Millstone].
Each volume of the "Straits" trilogy is
designed to stand on its own; together,
however, they represent the fullest account
yet published of the escape of Goeben and
Breslau, the Royal Navy in the Mediterranean
and British policy towards the Ottoman
Empire for the period 1900-15. Please note
that Superior Force is in a larger format.

The Links Page :
As the range of our activities is so diverse,
we have a number of different websites. The site
you are currently viewing is wholly devoted to
the second of the three non-fiction books
written by Geoffrey Miller, and deals
specifically with British policy towards the
Ottoman Empire and the origins of the
Dardanelles Campaign. The main Flamborough Manor
site focuses primarily on accommodation but has
brief details of all our other activities. To
allow for more information to be presented on
these other activities, there are other
self-contained web-sites. All our web-sites have
a
LINKS
page in common, which allows for easy navigation
between the various sites. To find out where you
are, or to return to the main site, simply go to
