The Influence of Sea Power Upon History, 1660-1783

par Alfred Thayer Mahan · 31 parties · about 15 hours 47 minutes de lecture

Bonjour, je m'appelle Finn et je vais t'aider à comprendre ce livre.

Le voici, expliqué comme si tu avais 10 ans :

Un officier de marine nommé Mahan a regardé les anciennes guerres et a vu un modèle que la plupart avaient manqué. Le pays qui gouvernait la mer, a t il dit, pouvait commercer, déplacer des armées et affamer ses ennemis, tandis que le pays coupé de la mer perdait peu à peu. Il raconte l'histoire à travers l'Angleterre, la Hollande et la France, leurs navires, leurs ports et leurs colonies. Des chefs du monde entier ont lu ce livre et se sont hâtés de construire de plus grandes flottes.
