Zusammenfassung: | "As the United States grew into an empire in the late nineteenth century, notions like 'sea power' derived not only from fleets, bases, and decisive battles, but also from a scientific effort to understand and master the ocean environment.

Smith. Chapel Hill : The University of North Carolina Press, [2018] 1 online resource (269 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Flows, migrations, and exchanges Includes bibliographical references and index. "As the United States grew into an empire in the late nineteenth century, notions like 'sea power' derived not only from fleets, bases, and decisive battles, but also from a scientific effort to understand and master the ocean environment. Beginning in the early nineteenth century and concluding in the first years of the twentieth, Jason W. Smith tells the story of the rise of the U.S. Navy and the emergence of American ocean empire through its struggle to control nature. In vividly told sketches of exploration, naval officers, war, and, most significantly, the ocean environment, Smith draws together insights from environmental, maritime, military, and naval history, and the history of science and cartography, placing the U.S. Navy's scientific efforts within a broader cultural context"-- Provided by publisher Cover; Contents; List of Illustrations; Introduction: The Boundless Sea; 1.
