The Neptune Factor: Alfred Thayer Mahan and the Concept of Sea Power
Nicholas A. Lambert
The biography of an idea - the concept of ‘Sea Power’, a term first coined by Capt. A.T. Mahan and the core thread of his life’s work. His central argument was that the outcome of rivalries on the seas have decisively shaped the course of modern history.
