520			_a"Mahan on Naval Warfare" edited by Allan Westcott is a historical account showcasing selections from the writings of Rear Admiral Alfred Thayer Mahan, written in the late 19th to early 20th century. The work compiles Mahan’s influential analyses on the role of naval power in international relations, primarily focusing on historical events and strategic principles related to naval warfare. It delves into the significance of sea power in shaping global politics, particularly through Mahan's famous theories that emphasize the decisive influence of maritime supremacy on national greatness. The opening of this work provides biographical context for Mahan, detailing his upbringing, naval career, and intellectual journey that led him to become a pivotal figure in naval history. It introduces Mahan's early life and education, including his entry into the Naval Academy, as well as his eventual role as a lecturer at the Naval War College, where he formulated his theories on naval strategy. The text underscores Mahan’s belief in the necessity of historical study for military leaders and sets the stage for his exploration of key principles that guide naval war strategy, suggesting that understanding the past is essential for competent naval leadership in the present and future.
