Mahan is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the pivotal role that naval power played in shaping the outcomes of the French Revolution and the subsequent conflicts during the Napoleonic era. Mahan's work is a comprehensive analysis intended to illuminate the strategic implications of maritime capabilities within the context of European political dynamics. The opening of the book sets the stage by providing a contextual overview of the events leading to 1793, highlighting the geopolitical landscape in Europe post-American Revolutionary War. It illustrates the political and military conditions of the time, notably the mounting tensions between France and other European powers, particularly Great Britain and Austria. Mahan details the initial stages leading to open conflict, including the internal chaos within France, the execution of Louis XVI, and the new French Republic’s declarations of war that would soon embroil major nations in a struggle for dominance at sea and land, establishing the crucial importance of sea power in determining the outcomes of these historical events.
