Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings of the United States Naval Institute, 1895, Vol. 21 The first steam tactics prepared for the student in the art Of war were mainly drawn from studies Of tactics under sail, the necessary modifications being made to suit the change in motive power. It was evident that many of the Old rules still applied; that the uncertainty produced by being obliged to rely upon the wind having been eliminated, it became possible to be more exact in the performance of manoeuvres and more regular in formations. TO concentrate a large portion Of your force on a small portion Of the enemy's was still the thing for which to strive and more than ever likely to bring success. As sail was partially a source Of reliance, injury to the engines was not entirely fatal; and the knowledge Of how to handle a Vessel under sail was a necessity. The facility with which vessels could be handled under steam and the ease with which concentration could be accomplished gave them such an immense superiority over vessels dependent upon sail alone that it caused sails to fall gradually into disuse. Superiority in speed and in handiness were still elements Of advantage that facilitated the following Of the tactical rule Of concentration. The improvements now came so rapidly, and the differences between the new and the Old weapons became so great that the minds Of naval men were unsettled. It became difficult to draw any analogy between an Old fleet and one of modern times. The tactical relations between the various weapons and between the different types Of Ships were constantly changing, and it was difficult, if not impossible, to estimate the tactical values Of these varying quantities. Each tactician had his favorite weapon and favorite type Of ship, and used a few facts and many suppositions to support his theory. Armor was placed in all positions, guns Of many calibres were carried, vessels were built Of all sizes and carried weapons Of various kinds, and the kinds of powder and projectiles supplied were no less numerous. Some tacticians relied on ramming, some upon torpedoes, and some upon the use Of guns as the principal weapons, putting the others in the background as auxiliaries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fundamentals of Naval Tactics This work is a systematic codification in treatise form of the mathematical principles of Naval Tactics. The author is the instructor in the Art of Naval War at the Royal Italian Naval Academy, and his name is well known as the writer of a number of excellent articles of much original thought on naval tactics in the Revista Marittima. He is therefore well fitted for the task of reducing to the consecutive order and logical sequence, so necessary to the student, tactical principles and theorems. Tactics is an ever changing art; for while its scientific principles do not change, its rules necessarily change with changing conditions. No books on tactics will ever solve the problem finally, because the problem is forever changing; but if its methods are correct, these will ever be of value. Even if we do not agree with all the views of the author and of the other of his distinguished compatriots whose views he has here embodied, the work would be of value as expressing the Italian point of view; and Italy stands in the first rank of naval thought. As the title indicates, the book deals chiefly with the fundamentals, and approaches the subject more particularly from the mathematical side.
