"The Influence of Sea Power upon the French Revolution and Empire, 1793-1812" by Captain A. T. Mahan is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume, part of a larger work, analyzes the critical role of naval power in shaping the events of the French Revolution and the subsequent Napoleonic Wars. The book examines how Britain’s naval supremacy influenced the military and political outcomes for France during this turbulent period. At the start of the volume, the narrative identifies France's challenges during the Second Coalition War from 1798 to 1800. Mahan details the French military operations, focusing on the actions of Bonaparte, the internal struggles within France, and the effects of external coalitions against the French Republic. Key events outlined include the disorder under the Directory, the disastrous military campaigns against various European powers, and the eventual rise of Bonaparte who capitalizes on these issues to consolidate power. The opening lays a foundation for understanding the interplay between military strategy and maritime dominance in shaping political fortunes during this era.
