A 1940 snapshot of naval strategic thought

Modern Naval Strategy offers contemporary analysis of sea command, air attack, convoys, and amphibious warfare in 1940.

Notes

The value of Modern Naval Strategy lies in its 1940 snapshot of Royal Navy thought. Its maps and chapters cover sea command, air attack, amphibious warfare, convoys, the Mediterranean, and the Pacific. Reginald Bacon represented one school of thought, so the book works best when read within its institutional setting.
