I do not remember all his arguments, but he told me he thought me much less fit for a military than for a civil profession, having watched me carefully. I think myself now that he was right; for, though I have no cause to complain of unsuccess, I believe I should have done better elsewhere. While thus more than dissenting from my choice, he held that a child should not be peremptorily thwarted in his scheme of life. Consequently, while he would not actively help me in the doubtful undertaking of obtaining an appointment, which depended then as now upon the representative from the congressional district, he gave me the means to go to Washington, and also two or three letters to[...]".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From Sail to Steam, Recollections of Naval Life" is the memoir of Anthony T. Mahan about his time in the navy in the 19th century. Mahan's father was a professor at the famous West Point Military Academy, New York in the United States. Through his connection, he entered the Naval Academy, as an "acting midshipman" in 1856. He opines, "Naval officers who began their career in the fifties of the past century, as I did, and who survive till now, as very many do, have been observant, if inconspicuous, witnesses of one of the most rapid and revolutionary changes that naval science and warfare have ever undergone. It has been aptly said that a naval captain who fought the Invincible Armada would have been more at home in the typical war-ship of 1840, than the average captain of 1840 would have been in the advanced types of the American Civil War. The twenty years here chosen for comparison cover the middle period of the century which has but recently expired. Since that time progress has gone on in accelerating ratio; and if the consequent changes have been less radical in kind, they have been more extensive in scope. It is interesting to observe that within the same two decades, in 1854, occurred the formal visit of Commodore Perry to Japan, and the negotiations of the treaty bringing her fairly within the movement of Western civilization; starting her upon the path which has resulted in the most striking illustration yet given of the powers of modern naval instruments, ships and weapons, diligently developed and elaborated during the period that has since elapsed."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alfred Thayer Mahan (1840-1914) ws a US naval officer and historian who has been described as "the most important American strategist of the 19th century." His book The Influence of Sea Power Upon History, 1660-1783 (1890) won immediate recognition, particularly in Europe, and with its successor, The Influence of Sea Power Upon the French Revolution and Empire 1793-1812 (1892), made him world-famous. After studying at Columbia, Mahan entered the Naval Academy where he graduated second in his class in 1859. Commissioned as a lieutenant in 1861 he served the Union in the Civil War as an officer on USS Worcester, Congress, Pocahontas, and James Adger, and as an instructor at the Naval Academy. In 1865 he was promoted to lieutenant commander and then to commander (1872), and captain (1885). In 1885 that he was appointed as lecturer in naval history at the Naval War College and was directed towards writing on the influence of sea power. He took over as President of the College from 1886-89 and 1892-93. Between 1889-92 he was engaged in special service for the Bureau of Navigation, then in 1893 was given command of the new protected cruiser Chicago on a visit to England. He returned to lecture at the War College and in 1896 retired from active service, returning briefly to duty to consult on naval strategy during the Spanish-American War. Mahan continued to write, publishing numerous books on naval subjects, including a biography of Nelson (1897). This memoir in which he looks back on his life and achievements in naval service was published in 1907.
