At the turn of the twentieth century, Alfred Thayer Mahan and Julian Stafford Corbett emerged as foundational thinkers on naval strategy and maritime power. Important in their lifetimes, their writings remain relevant in the contemporary environment.

Labeling a strategy, operation, or even a navy “Mahanian” or “Corbettian” tells very little.
