First half (139 pages) consists of the theory chapters; discusses/defines #seapower, #seacontrol, and #smallnavies. Tries to unify different uses of those terms into something consistent. Almost Gorkan in its simplicity but the gruntwork keeps a measure of order in the chaos. 2/7
The second half is the juicy empirical stuff, going from 🇳🇴through 🇩🇰 to 🇨🇦. Basically establishes a century-long context (ships take a long time!) to see how constabulary seapower developed despite military demands. Here are some topics that aren't explicitly subheadinged: 3/7

Given historical and current events, will be starting this thread to post on Seapower, the oceans as our global commercial commons and most important strategic domain, and all ships, vessels, boats, etc, floating & submerged, that interest me. "Look always to your moat!"
Always be sensible discussing #Seapower
In peace & war, the sea & its sailors are - esp if you speak English - your most crucial strategic doman. The ships at sea as combatants & escorts & cargo/POL carriers plus your ports/wharves/railheads all join up to make supply chains work ... Our most precious infrastructure
