It explores how the Union Navy evolved from a small, poorly funded force into a powerful instrument of war, while the Confederate Navy struggled to maintain its existence against overwhelming odds.

However, as the war dragged on and the scale of the fighting increased, it became clear that the Navy would play a crucial role in determining the outcome. The author delves into the technological advancements made during this period, including the development of ironclad ships, torpedoes, and submarines, which revolutionized naval warfare. He also examines the strategies employed by both sides, such as blockades, raids, and amphibious assaults, and how these tactics influenced the course of the war. Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the importance of understanding the evolution of technology in modern knowledge, highlighting how the Naval history of the Civil War serves as a prime example of how humanity has adapted to changing circumstances throughout history. By studying the development of the Union and Confederate Navies, readers can gain insight into the process of technological advancement and its impact on society.
Филлипс. By Sea and By River Военно-морская история гражданской войны - это всеобъемлющая история морских сражений, произошедших во время Гражданской войны в Америки.От первых выстрелов, сделанных в форте Самтер, до окончательной капитуляции армии Ли в Аппоматтоксе, эта книга повествует об эпической борьбе между Союзом и Конфедерацией, акцентируя внимание на роли ВМС в этом конфликте. В ней исследуется, как военно-морской флот Союза превратился из небольшой, плохо финансируемой силы в мощный инструмент войны, в то время как военно-морской флот Конфедерации изо всех сил пытался сохранить свое существование против подавляющего большинства. Книга начинается с введения в ранние годы Гражданской войны, описывающего, как обе стороны изначально считали, что конфликт будет недолгим и что традиционных методов сухопутной войны будет достаточно. Однако по мере затягивания войны и увеличения масштабов боевых действий стало ясно, что ВМС будут играть важнейшую роль в определении исхода. Автор углубляется в технологические достижения, достигнутые в этот период, включая разработку железных кораблей, торпед и подводных лодок, которые произвели революцию в морской войне. Он также исследует стратегии, используемые обеими сторонами, такие как блокады, рейды и десантные нападения, и как эта тактика повлияла на ход войны. На протяжении всей книги автор подчеркивает важность понимания эволюции технологий в современном знании, подчеркивая, как Морская история Гражданской войны служит ярким примером того, как человечество приспосабливалось к изменяющимся обстоятельствам на протяжении всей истории. Изучая развитие ВМС Союза и Конфедерации, читатели могут получить представление о процессе технологического прогресса и его влиянии на общество.
Phillips. By Sea and By River La storia navale della guerra civile è una storia completa delle battaglie marittime avvenute durante la guerra civile americana. Dai primi colpi sparati a Fort Sumter alla resa definitiva dell'esercito di e in Appomatox, questo libro parla di una epica lotta tra l'Unione e la Confederazione, ponendo l'accento sul ruolo della Marina in questo conflitto. Essa esamina come la Marina Militare dell'Unione sia passata da una piccola forza mal finanziata a un potente strumento di guerra, mentre la Marina Confederale ha cercato di mantenere la propria esistenza contro la stragrande maggioranza. Il libro inizia con l'introduzione nei primi anni della Guerra Civile, che descrive come entrambe le parti inizialmente pensassero che il conflitto sarebbe stato breve e che i metodi tradizionali della guerra di terra sarebbero stati sufficienti. Tuttavia, con il prolungarsi della guerra e l'aumento dei combattimenti, è chiaro che la Marina avrà un ruolo fondamentale nel determinare l'esito. L'autore approfondisce i progressi tecnologici raggiunti in questo periodo, tra cui lo sviluppo di navi di ferro, siluri e sottomarini che hanno rivoluzionato la guerra di mare. Sta anche esplorando le strategie utilizzate da entrambe le parti, come blocchi, raid e attacchi di sbarco, e come questa tattica abbia influenzato il corso della guerra. Durante tutto il libro, l'autore sottolinea l'importanza di comprendere l'evoluzione della tecnologia nella conoscenza contemporanea, sottolineando come la Storia Marina della Guerra Civile sia un chiaro esempio di come l'umanità si sia adattata alle circostanze che cambiano nel corso della storia. Studiando lo sviluppo della Marina dell'Unione e della Confederazione, i lettori possono avere un'idea del processo di progresso tecnologico e del suo impatto sulla società.
