Preceded (ff. i-iii) by notes on the MS. by Admiral Sir Frederic Charles Dreyer, G.B.E., K.C.B., Jellicoe's Flag Captain at Jutland, 29 Apr. 1939. According to the preface (p. vii) to the printed text, the MS. was finished by the early autumn of 1918, but publication was deferred till after the Armistice. The version published in Feb. 1919 was substantially the same as the present MS., with the addition of a preface, appendices, three extra chapters (II, III, XI), various charts, diagrams and tables, and material supplying omissions (e.g. at ff. 19, 19b) in the MS. and at its end (p. 461 onwards in the printed text), or elaborating certain passages (e.g. ff. 101-139). The first chapter of the MS., though headed 'Chapter II', corresponds to the first printed chapter, and 'Chapters III-IX' to the printed chapters IV-X. The account of the battle of Jutland under various headings (ff. 101-133) corresponds to the printed chapters XII-XV, and 'Chapters XII, XIII' to chapters XVI and XVII as printed.
