Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Struggle for Sea Power The wonderful story of England's conquest of India reads, even today, like some fairy legend of the Old World. It is the story of how one small island, away in the Northern seas, conquered an empire ten times its own size, at a distance of 6000 miles. In the ages of long ago, when the Egyptians were building their pyramids, when the Phoenicians were sailing to the Pillars of Hercules, when the Greeks were adorning Athens and the Romans were spreading their empire far and wide, this England was still Sleeping on the waves of the boundless sea.

Book Synopsis Story of Sea Power (Classic Reprint) by : William Oliver Stevens
Download or read book Story of Sea Power (Classic Reprint) written by William Oliver Stevens and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Story of Sea Power This volume has been called into being by the absence of any brief work covering the evolution and influence Of sea power from the beginnings to the present time. In a survey at once so comprehensive and so short, only the high points of naval history can be touched. Yet it is the hope of the authors that they have not, for that reason, slighted the sig nificance of the story. Naval history is more than a sequence Of battles. Sea power has always been a vital force in the rise and fall of nations and in the evolution Of civilization. It is this significance, this larger, related point of view, which the authors have tried to make clear in recounting the story of the sea. In regard to naval principles, also, this general survey should reveal those unchanging truths of warfare which have been demonstrated from Salamis to Jutland. The tendency Of our modern era of mechanical development has been to forget the value Of history. It is true that the. 16 gun is a great advance over the 32-pounder Of Trafalgar, but it is equally true that the naval officer of to-day must' still sit at the feet Of Nelson.

Book Synopsis The Evolution of Sea-Power (Classic Reprint) by : P. A. Silburn
Download or read book The Evolution of Sea-Power (Classic Reprint) written by P. A. Silburn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Sea-Power This work has been inspired by the following passage, which appears in the preface of that great work The Influence of sea-power upon History Historians generally have been unfamiliar with the conditions of the sea, having as to it neither special interest nor special knowledge, and the profound determining influence of maritime strength upon great issues has consequently been overlooked. It is not with any presumptuous ambition of endeavour ing to meet the want for a history of sea-power, or any hope of being able to rectify the omission of the historians of the past so rightly deplored by Admiral Mahan in the passage quoted above, that this work has been undertaken, but rather it is an earnest endeavour to place before the public an outline of the growth of sea-power, the use that has been made of it in peace as well as in war, and the all-important part that it has taken in placing nations in the order and situation they occupy to-day. The definite object proposed in this work is an examina tion of the growth of sea-power from that of the Phoenicians to that of the maritime nations of the present day, placing in relief the part sea-power has taken in the delimitation of territory among the races of the world, the determining influence it has exercised in the rise of republics, kingdoms, and empires, an attempt to show, where such is possible, the disaster which inevitably follows the neglect of the general principles of sea-power.

Download or read book Heresies of Sea Power (Classic Reprint) written by Fred; T. Jane and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heresies of Sea Power This book is intentionally suggestive only. Though it seem to be all that its title can imply, it has not been produced with a view to casting doubt upon the labours of great men who have made a special study of Naval History, but only in order to suggest the possibility of some great principle underlying all Naval History, as capable of reinforcing theories of Sea Power as of destroying them. I would only ask those whose first attitude towards the book may be that of hostile criticism to read it to the end before forming too definite an opinion as to the thesis advanced, assuring them that the final conclusion has not been arrived at without very careful thought, earnest study, and every effort to avoid the role of the mere iconoclast.

Book Synopsis Sea Power in the Next War (Classic Reprint) by : Russell Grenfell
Download or read book Sea Power in the Next War (Classic Reprint) written by Russell Grenfell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea Power in the Next War This series of volumes, in which different aspects are treated as far as possible in relation to each other, may help to form such a background. Sea Power in the Next War is treated by Com mander Russell Grenfell who was recently on the teaching stafl of the Royal Naval College, Green wich. It was only last year that he published his first book, The Art of the Admiral, but it placed him immediately in the front rank of naval writers. The attention it attracted, both from the public and the experts, was the more remarkable because it was in no way sensational, making its impression simply by the clarity of the reasoning, and the Iucidity of the writing. His present study of the wider problems of sea power has the same qualities. The balanced treatment of the subject as a whole gives, however, the more emphasis to his discussion of the risks that are being courted by the large ship policy, and to his proposals for the development of a destroyer fleet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Eclipse of American Sea Power Mr. Wickham Steed, editor of the London Times, in a recent speech quoted in the Montreal Statesman stated the following: "The American delegates refused to give out any news during the Conference. They left this whole matter with the British publicity agent, Lord Riddell, and I am not giving away any state secrets when I say that when Lord Riddell left Washington there was general lamentation among the American and other correspondents, who wondered where they would proceed to get the real news. That may have been Quixotic on the part of the Americans, but rather than be under any suspicion of using their press to turn public opinion against nations with whom they may have had differences, they did this, and tie American delegates were absolutely and honourably silent."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea Power by T 124 Nor were such sentiments by any means confined to Britain. In most of the maritime countries of the world, Mahan's interpretations of naval history excited lively interest and discussion, and called into being a body of supporters. But there was one European country in particular where the Mahan thesis was studied with specially close attention. To the military leaders Of Germany, the lessons pointed by Mahan seemed pregnant with meaning; and to no one more than their supreme head. The young Kaiser Wilhelm II was enthralled by the brilliant seascape that Mahan had painted. 'i am just now', he wrote, 'not reading but devouring Captain Mahan's book; and am trying to learn it by heart It is on board all my Ships and constantly quoted by my captains and officers.' He was already possessed of the world's most powerful army. But at sea Germany was weak; had always been weak. Compared to that of either Britain or France, the German fleet was insignificant. Neither Bismarck nor his predecessors had seen the need for naval strength. German land forces alone had sufficed to crush the Danes, the Austrians and the French in succession. But now that the unification of the German states into a German Empire was an accomplished fact. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Interest of America in Sea Power, Present and Future Whatever interest may be possessed by a collection of detached papers, issued at considerable intervals during a term of several years, and written without special reference one to the other, or, at the first, with any view to subsequent publication, depends as much upon the date at which they were composed, and the condition of affairs then existent, as it does upon essential unity of treatment. If such unity perchance be found in these, it will not be due to antecedent purpose, but to the fact that they embody the thought of an individual mind, consecutive in the line of its main conceptions, but adjusting itself continually to changing conditions, which the progress of events entails.
