The first part provides an overview of the history of naval power from ancient times to the seventeenth century. The second part focuses on the period from 1660 to 1783, examining the major naval conflicts and their impact on world history. The third part discusses the lessons that can be learned from this period and their relevance to modern times.Mahan's central thesis is that naval power is the key to national greatness.
