Title: Art and the War at Sea 1914 to 45 by Christine Riding
Summary: The explores how artists represented naval warfare during the First and Second World Wars. The book focuses on artworks from the collections of the National Maritime Museum and examines how visual art recorded, interpreted, and commemorated maritime conflict. 
The book argues that the cultural history of war has usually focused on land battles, especially trench warfare, while the naval war and its artistic representations have been largely neglected. It seeks to correct this by analysing paintings, drawings, photographs, posters, and memorials related to warfare at sea between 1914 and 1945.
