A seminal work from years ago


(5 Sterne)

I didn’t hear about this book until a few years ago but it seems to have had a great influence on political and military thinkers before the beginning of World War One. Anyone with an interest in naval and merchant history from the days of sailing ships will find this very enlightening. I found it a very enjoyable listen and thank the narrator for his efforts. Well done sir.

A must read for Navy strategy and tactics

Thank you for taking the time to read such an important text! It takes considerable dedication to do so. Bravo Zulu! The audio quality could be a bit more consistent, as it is some parts are easier to listen to than others at high speed.
