Hardcover. Condición: Fine. No Jacket. xxviii, 387 pages : illustrations ; 22 cm. ISBN 9780870214370, 0870214373 OCLC 18382515 ; green cloth no dustjacket ; Reprint. 2nd ed. New York : Scribner's, 1918 ; Bradley A. Fiske presents a profound exploration of naval warfare and the strategic advancements that shaped modern naval oper…ations. Written during the early 20th century, Fiske employs a meticulous analytical style complemented by vivid descriptions of maritime tactics and technologies. The book serves as both a historical account and a reflective treatise on the evolution of naval power, contextualized within the broader narrative of industrialization and military innovation. The author's insights into the interplay between technology and tactics resonate deeply, making the text relevant to both historians and military strategists alike. Bradley A. Fiske, a notable naval officer and innovator himself, draws upon his extensive experience in the U.S. Navy to inform his writing. His involvement in pivotal naval battles and his advocacy for modernization in naval tactics provide a unique vantage point. Fiske's technical expertise, combined with his commitment to fostering a deeper understanding of naval warfare, fuels the book's analytical fire. His firsthand knowledge of the maritime landscape of his time significantly influences his arguments, making this work an essential reading for those interested in military history. I highly recommend "The Navy as a Fighting Machine" to scholars, historians, and enthusiasts of military strategy. Fiske's authoritative voice provides not just insights into naval tactics but also a clarion call for recognizing the inherent power dynamics of naval forces in global conflicts. This book is not merely a historical account; it is a vital scholarly resource that offers essential lessons for contemporary military theory. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - Hand-picked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.; Admiral Bradley A.

His extensive career in naval service, which spanned more than four decades, saw Fiske being actively engaged in modernizing the Navy and promoting technological advancements. His written work, 'The Navy as a Fighting Machine,' published in 1916, delves into the strategic and tactical aspects of naval warfare, reflecting his vision for a more effective and technologically advanced fleet. Fiske advocated for the Navy's transformation by integrating new technologies and strategic concepts, underscoring the importance of preparedness and efficiency ; ownership stamp on front endpaper of Edward William Girard (1930-2020), a Boeing engineer & Rockwell Missile Systems Division operational analysis manager that served in the Navy during the Korean War.
