She served in the First World War as part of the Grand Fleet, and participated in the inconclusive Action of 19 August 1916. Her service during the war generally consisted of routine patrols and training in the North Sea. She and the other super-dreadnought battleships were the first of their type to be powered by oil instead of coal. Queen Elizabeth later served in several theatres during the Second World War, and was ultimately scrapped in 1948. E-130; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 224 pages .
