Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. For centuries, the most consequential naval victories have often been won without a climactic battle. Pressure at sea is frequently built the slower way: by constraining routes, controlling ports, and making an opponent's trade and military movement too risky to sustain. From the First World War's far-reaching interdiction campaigns to Cold War confrontations framed as limited "quarantines", the strategic question has persisted: not who can win a single engagement, but who can remain on station, enforce restrictions, and manage escalation while the world watches.Naval Checkmate reframes sea control as a practical contest of access and endurance. Rafael Conti examines what makes a maritime blockade credible in a globalised economy, how chokepoint strategy concentrates leverage and danger, and why basing rights and access agreements can matter as much as ship numbers. He follows the sustainment problem through naval logistics: replenishment, repair, ammunition realities, and the vulnerability of the support fleet. He then shows how maritime surveillance complicates concealment and manoeuvre, tightening decision time and raising the costs of miscalculation in crowded seas.Written for students of strategy, informed general readers, and policy and military analysts, the book provides a disciplined framework for assessing maritime options without relying on secret data or fashionable predictions. Readers finish with a clearer grasp of how geography, sustainment, and escalation constraints shape what navies can credibly threaten, what they can reliably protect, and how maritime power is converted into lasting leverage. Naval Checkmate reframes sea control as a practical contest of access and endurance. It examines what makes a maritime blockade credible in a globalised economy. This item is printed on demand.
