Обкладинка Alfred Thayer Mahan: The Major Operations of the Navies in the War of American Independence (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

While westward land expansion captured the attention of America’s leaders, Mahan used history to prove that he who controls the seas controls the globe. In this 1913 classic of military historical analysis, dissecting battles at Boston, Charleston, New York, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, he argues that the Revolutionary War was really won on the water.

Про автора

Alfred Thayer Mahan (1840-1914) was a historian, educator, 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).
