Admiral Bradley A. Fiske argues that strategy shapes a navy as mind does a person. He compares German and American methods, noting Congress and officials influence ships, personnel, and plans, and asserts Germany’s unified, preplanned fleet method outpaces the U.S. in both preparation and execution.
