Abstract

The Great Axis Squeeze
Rosinski, Herbert | November 9, 1940 issue

add to cart   close window

The ultimate significance and success of the New Era in World History so proudly proclaimed by the three Axis partners are questions which for the time being must remain in suspense, but there can be no doubt that the new strategy of a world-wide onslaught upon the British Empire and through it upon the U.S., will mark a vital, perhaps decisive, turning-point not merely in the present war but in the age-long struggle between land power and sea power. The remarkable influence hitherto exerted by sea power upon the course of history has resulted as much from the inferior organization of land power as from sea power's intrinsic and peculiar strength.
