In "The Influence of Sea Power upon History, 1660-1783," Alfred Thayer Mahan meticulously articulates the critical role of naval supremacy in shaping global power dynamics. Through a compelling narrative style that weaves together historical analysis and strategic insight, Mahan examines the maritime strategies of nations such as England, France, and the emerging United States. At the intersection of historiography and military theory, his work addresses the sociopolitical implications of naval dominance, making a profound case for sea power as a cornerstone of national security and influence during the Age of Sail. Alfred Thayer Mahan, a distinguished U.S. naval officer and historian, was profoundly influenced by the strategic developments of his era, including the rise of industrialization and the evolution of naval warfare. His extensive experience and keen observations during service in the Navy fostered a desire to interrogate historical precedents in naval power. Mahan's scholarship is underpinned by a belief that naval strength is not merely a tool for warfare, but a vital determinant of national greatness, a principle that resonated deeply with the imperial ambitions of his time. This seminal work is indispensable for readers interested in maritime history, military strategy, and the implications of geopolitical power. Mahan's insights continue to reverberate within contemporary discussions of national policy and strategy, making this book essential for both scholars and practitioners in the field.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Alfred Thayer Mahan's The Influence of Sea Power upon History is a foundational work of strategic history, tracing the rise and rivalry of maritime powers from 1660 to 1783. With lucid, argumentative prose and a historian's command of naval campaigns, Mahan contends that command of the sea-secured through fleets, commerce, colonies, and strategic bases-has decisively shaped national greatness. Written in the late nineteenth-century context of imperial expansion and professionalized military thought, the book transforms naval history into a theory of geopolitics. Mahan, a United States naval officer, educator, and later president of the Naval War College, wrote from within an institution seeking intellectual foundations for modern sea strategy. His operational experience, study of British naval supremacy, and awareness of America's emerging international role led him to formulate principles that linked national policy, economic expansion, and naval preparedness. His work profoundly influenced policymakers in the United States, Britain, Germany, and Japan. This book is essential for readers interested in military history, international relations, maritime strategy, or the intellectual origins of modern power politics. Though some assumptions reflect its imperial age, its central questions remain strikingly relevant. 272 pp. Englisch. N° de réf. du vendeur 9788028358884
