Finally, I always go to sea as a sailor, because of the wholesome exercise and pure air of the fore-castle deck. For as in this world, head winds are far more prevalent than winds from astern (that is, if you never violate the Pythagorean maxim), so for the most part the Commodore...
Strategy drives history, in other words. It is not history's handmaid that it should run and beg for academic respectability from a clan of ink stained scholars. We study strategy because we are interested in times and places where intelligent human action - in violent strategic competition, no...
