This volume had its origin in lectures delivered at the U.S. Naval Academy in the winter of 1915-1916 to midshipmen. The eleven chapters in this book with one exception were contributed to the New York Times Current History Magazine during the year 1917 and now appear in revised form. The exception is the sixth chapter--The Dardanelles Operations--which was written to complete the series covering the major naval operations of the war and is now published for the first time. The book was used at the Naval Academy in the teaching of naval history. Charles Clifford Gill author and naval officer graduated from the Naval Academy in 1906. In 1911 he was an aide to Staff Commander First Division Atlantic Fleet and beginning in 1916 served as gunnery officer on USS Seattle and Oklahoma. He was executive officer of USS George Washington and navigator on the battleship Pennsylvania. He commanded USS Antares Vestel and Astoria. He became Professor of Naval Science and Tactics at Yale. Gill included material which examined naval operations conducted during World War I - and outlines significant naval lessons learned. Gill's observations are from the standpoint of a technical student of naval warfare. His underlying belief was in the importance of naval power to a nation whose boundaries are the two oceans - and whose interests extend throughout the seven seas. George H. Doran Company hardcover
