"The Influence of Sea Power upon the French Revolution and Empire 1793-1812" by Alfred Thayer Mahan is a two-volume history of naval warfare published in 1892. This successor to Mahan's influential earlier work examines how naval supremacy shaped the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Mahan analyzes major battles including Trafalgar and the Nile, arguing that British control of the seas proved crucial in countering French ambitions and contributing to Napoleon's downfall.
His detailed study of naval strategies and their political impacts established lasting influence on military doctrine and strategic thought. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
