What reading level is The World's Highway : Some Notes On America's Relation to Sea Power And Non-Military Sanctions for the Law of Nations book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The automatic mine is as dangerous to friends as to foes. While it may cause annoyance and loss, it will never decide a war. Sweeping operations can only be prevented by the defeat of the fleet which covers them. A mine field on the high seas can only partially and temporarily hamper the movements of the superior fleet while it restricts the oppor- 144 -THE WORLD'S HIGHWAY tunities for evasion and surprise which might have accrued to the inferior.
Of the influence of the submarine it is perhaps... too early to speak, since it is still in a state of development. So far it never appears to have scored a success against a vessel in rapid move- ment or accompanied by destroyers. Its total failure to interfere with the transport of troops and stores is a significant mark of its present limitations.
We have now discussed the nature of sea power and the manner in which it is exercised. It re- mains to consider very briefly certain influences it has exercised in the development of nations.
It may be said in general that sustained national effort will always be associated with real or pre- sumed national needs.
