Maritime powers have long dominated the world, from the British empire of the 19th century to the American post-World War II domination of global affairs. Their control of the globe is based on control of the seas, and this book seeks to examine the strengths and weaknesses of maritime power. It includes specific chapters on mutiny, blockades, coalitions, piracy, expeditionary warfare, commerce raiding, and soft power operations, as well as a larger discussion of sea power characteristics such as sea control, sea denial, and the competition between land powers and sea powers. The conclusions will discuss how many other countries, including Russia during the Cold War and the PRC today, have or are seeking to use sea power to claim regional and then eventually global hegemony.
