This book explores the mingling of two rather different
perspectives, those of the naval and aeronautical schools of
thought, and the impact that they had upon one another in natural,
professional and geopolitical settings. To explain the manner in
which air power was incorporated into warfare between 1914 and 1945
it studies the deeds of practitioners, the limitations of
technology, the realities of combat and the varying institutional
dynamics and strategic priorities of the major maritime powers. It
is underpinned by an appreciation of the geostrategic setting of
the key maritime states, while addressing the challenges of
operating in this multifaceted environment and the major
technological developments which enabled air power to play an ever
greater role in the maritime sphere. The potential for air power to
influence warfare in the maritime environment was fully realised
during the Second World War and its impact is demonstrated through
an analysis of a wide range of the fleet operations and how it was
utilised in the defence of trade and sea lanes. As such this book
will be of interest to both naval and air power historians and
those wanting a fuller perspective on maritime strategy in this
period.
