While westward land expansion captured the attention of America's leaders, Mahan used history to prove that he who controls the seas controls the globe. In this 1913 classic of military historical analysis, dissecting battles at Boston, Charleston, New York, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, he argues that the Revolutionary War was really won on the water.
