This antiquarian book contains A. T. Mahan’s classic 1897 treatise on American naval power, 'The Interest of America in Sea Power Present and Future'. This classic text is famous for having had an enormous influence on the thinking of American president Theodore Roosevelt, and is highly recommended for those with an interest in the subject. The chapters of this volume include: “The United States Looking Outward”, “Hawaii and Our Future Sea Power”, “The Isthmus and Sea Power”, “Possibilities of an Anglo-American Reunion”, “The Future in Relation to American Naval Power”, “Preparedness for Navel War”, etcetera. Alfred Thayer Mahan (1840 - 1914) was a geostrategist, historian, and admiral in the United States Navy. He is considered to be one of the most important American strategists during the nineteenth century. Many vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
