In Gilbert Murray's book, Great Britain's Sea Policy, he examines the history of Britain's naval policy from the late eighteenth century to the early twentieth century. He looks at the various strategies employed by the British government to maintain its naval supremacy, including the development of a powerful navy, the use of naval blockades, and the establishment of a network of naval bases around the world. He also examines the impact of technological advances on naval warfare, and the role of the Royal Navy in the two world wars. Finally, he looks at the changing nature of naval power in the modern era, and the implications for Britain's future naval policy.
