How to Grow a Navy
Perceptions of Naval Power Between The Wars
Aircraft maintenance was also poor, and their pilots slow-thinking and lacking in initiative. Sound assessment of the strength of foreign navies depends on intelligence material being effectively collected, collated, interpreted and passed on to the appropriate policy-makers in sufficient time. The Naval Intelligence Division (NID) was a part of the Naval Staff and so shared to a large extent in the peacetime atrophy of that organisation. The amb…
Strategy and the Sea
The Evolution of Strategy and the New World Order
This chapter raises the following main points
The Submarine
This book is distinctively different from the usual run of books about naval history in general or of the submarine service in particular. From the start it adopts a ‘cultural’ approach to the submarine, rather than an operational one, that is perhaps surprising given the fact that the author is himself a former submariner. The book starts with a review of reviews—naval ones, that is—and especially the fleet reviews of 1897 for Queen Victoria and…

Asia. Naval warfare 1919–1945: An operational history of the volatile war at sea. By Malcolm Murfett. London: Routledge, 2009. Pp xviii + 629, Maps, Annexes, Notes, Bibliography, Index. - Volume 41 Issue 2
Power at Sea
This three-volume work is naval history on the grand scale. In 1,240 pages Lisle Rose takes us through the naval history of the past 120 years. He writes well, in an often almost conversational manner which, admittedly, sometimes lapses into the florid at times; he has strong and quite often novel views and explains them at length; his work is based on extensive consultation of the secondary literature that must have taken a lifetime to master. T…
A Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower
Navies everywhere are grappling with the security issues they confront in the post‐9/11 world. This is a difficult task because they face issues that seem so much more complicated than we remember
Maritime Strategy in a Globalizing World
Trafalgar and the Decisive Naval Battles of the 21st Century
This year is the 200th anniversary of the battle of Trafalgar, the archetype of the traditional naval campaign. This article analyses the evolution of naval thinking about the decisive battle, explores its role in the world of the 21st century and identifies several other crucial battles that today's navies need to fight and win. It concludes that despite the differences brought about by technological transformation there is a surprising degree o…
Holding the Bridge in Troubled Times
European navies made a fundamental contribution to the Cold War at sea, ensuring the effectiveness of deterrence even as Soviet naval forces grew to ominous proportions. European fleets were tasked with containing a Soviet attack until US forces could arrive on the scene. Many European navies pursued essential niche capabilities tailored for their own unique maritime environments. Others made important contributions to broader NATO efforts in the…
Quarantine Operations
Maritime Airpower in the Interwar Period
The impact of airpower on the conduct of naval operations was considerable. It affected the roles, perceived importance and composition of the battle fleet, but its transformational effect was gradual rather than instantaneous. Airpower played a crucial role in the information war that underlay maritime operations. Access to, and the exploitation of, information greatly influenced the way in which the Royal Navy managed the actual process of chan…
Seapower as Strategy
A noted defense analyst and naval weapons expert lays out the roles of navies and naval strategy in the twenty-first century. Drawing upon historical examples, Norman Friedman first explains how and why naval strategy differs from other kinds of military strategy and then provides a sense of the special flavor of a maritime or naval approach to national security problems. The various uses of navies are described and illustrated by extended case s…

Maritime Strategy and the Nuclear Age
An Introduction
Every so often a book appears which captures the spirit of the times, sells in its tens of thousands and educates a generation. Captain Alfred T. Mahan's The Influence of Sea Power Upon History 1660–1783, published in 1890, was just such a book.
