Escape of the Goeben and Breslau
From The Dreadnought Project
Alfred T. Mahan, referring to the hounding of the Révolutionnaire by a flying squadron of '74s before the Glorious First of June, noted that, "the concentration upon her, while eminently judicious, served to bring out vividly the advantage, which should never be forgotten, of one heavy ship over several smaller, even though the force of the latter may, in the aggregate, be much superior."[1]
