THE INFLUENCE OF SEA POWER upon the French Revolution and Empire.
Reading edition
By Capt. A.T. Mahan. With 13 maps and battle plans, 2 vols. 8vo. Cloth, gilt top. $6.00.
A highly interesting and an important work, having lessons and suggestions which are calculated to be of high value to the people of the United States. His pages abound with spirited and careful accounts of the great naval battles and manœuvres which occurred during the period treated.—New York Tribune.
Captain Mahan has done more than to write a new book upon naval history. He has even done more than to write the best book that has ever been written upon naval history, though he has done this likewise; for he has written a book which may be regarded as founding a new school of naval historical writing. Captain Mahan's volumes are already accepted as the standard authorities of their kind, not only here, but in England and in Europe generally. It should be a matter of pride to all Americans that an officer of our own navy should have written such books.—Theodore Roosevelt, in "Political Science Quarterly."
