À propos de cet audio
While the overriding image of World War I is of the bloody stalemate on the Western Front, the overall shape of the war arose out of its maritime character. It was essentially a struggle about access to worldwide resources, most clearly seen in Germany's desperate attempts to counter the American industrial threat, which ultimately drew the United States into the war.
This radical new book concentrates on the way in which each side tried to use or deny the sea to the other, and in so doing describes rapid wartime changes not only in ship and weapons technology but also in the way naval warfare was envisaged and fought. Melding strategic, technical, and tactical aspects, Friedman approaches World War I from a fresh perspective and demonstrates how its perceived lessons dominated the way navies prepared for World War II.

A History of Sea Power during the Great War that is well worth the read
This is full of very worthwhile information not least of which espouses what history can still teach us. This account of of the Great War from a maritime perspective is something that should be read by the curious historian and emerging strategist alike. Friedman provides a level of detail in easily relatable terms and leaves one with an understanding of the importance not only of the maritime, but the importance that the Sea still holds in terms of being a basis for nations power today in an era of globalization
