Description: Naval Administration And Warfare: Some General Principles, With Other Essays Mahan, Captain A. T. Published by Little, Brown, and Company, Boston (1908) No one had a greater influence on TR in matters Naval than Mahan; Teddy Roosevelt as Assistant Secretary of the Navy and as President implemented many of those ideas and the overall general theory, that a great nation must have a great Navy.Alfred Thayer Mahan (September 27, 1840 – December 1, 1914) was a United States Navy admiral, geostrategist, and historian, who has been called "the most important American strategist of the nineteenth century." His concept of "sea power" was based on the idea that countries with greater naval power will have greater worldwide impact; it was most famously presented in The Influence of Sea Power Upon History, 1660–1783 (1890). The concept had an enormous influence in shaping the strategic thought of navies across the world, especially those of the United States, Germany, Japan and Britain, ultimately causing a European naval arms race in the 1890s. His ideas still permeate the US Navy doctrine. Several ships have been named as the USS Mahan, including the lead vessel of a class of destroyers. See photos for condition details. Shelf wear.
