This book gathers together various lectures that Mahan delivered between 1887 and 1911 at the U.S. Naval War College in Newport, Rhode Island. In this comprehensive work, Mahan provides a detailed review of the principles of naval strategy and explores a multitude of historical examples to illustrate and support these principles. Naval Strategy remains a classic work on operational warfare at sea from the father of modern naval thought.
Over de auteur
Alfred Thayer Mahan (1840-1914) was a historian and U.S. naval officer. A veteran of the Civil War, Mahan championed the idea that sea power—military and commercial—determines the fate of nations: an idea that remains potent today. He is best known for The Influence of Sea Power Upon History, 1660-1783 (1890).
