For the lay person just wanting to learn more about the history of the most majestic, and ridiculous warships ever constructed I would suggest:

Dreadnought: A History of the Modern Battleship by Richard Hough, an excellent if slightly older(written in the 60's) overview of the era by one of the 4 or 5 top tier Dreadnought historians. Relatively short, and pretty digestible, especially compared to Massie at times.

The senior surviving officer, Baron Burkard von Müllenheim-Rechberg, also later wrote a book about his time aboard, I have not read it myself, but have seen him quoted extensively, including in the report Jschool linked below. But it may be of interest: https://www.amazon.com/Battleship-Bismarck-Survivors-Expanded-Bluejacket/dp/1557504369?ie=UTF8&redirect=true&tag=bismarck
