Sea Power in its Relations to the War of 1812

Autorenportrait

Alfred Thayer Mahan (1840-1914) was a United States naval officer and historian, considered by many as one of the most important American strategist of the nineteenth century. His book The Influence of Sea Power Upon History, 1660-1783 won immediate recognition, especially in Europe, and with its successor, The Influence of Sea Power Upon the French Revolution and Empire, 1793-1812, made him world-famous and perhaps the most influential American author of the nineteenth century.
