Abstract of six lectures on strategy that were given by Captain A. T. Mahan at the Naval War College. Over some time, Mahan delivered a course of lectures upon strategy that clearly and forcibly set forth the great truths of the art of war. The whole course was divided into two series, the first being, "The Strategic Features of the Caribbean" and the second series was devoted to "Some Considerations of the Art of War, Naval and Land, with Illustrations from Bonaparte's Italian Campaign of 1796-1797."
