Alfred Thayer Mahan

    September 27, 1840 – December 1, 1914

    Alfred Thayer Mahan was a United States Navy flag officer, geostrategist, and historian, whose concept of "sea power" posited that nations with greater naval might would wield greater worldwide influence. This idea profoundly shaped strategic thought for navies globally, contributing to the naval arms race preceding World War I. His theories continue to permeate U.S. Navy doctrine today. Recognized as the most important American strategist of the nineteenth century, Mahan's work remains vital for understanding the historical evolution of maritime strategy and its global impact.
