Victory at Sea: Naval Power and the Transformation of the Global Order in World War II 

byPaul Kennedy

In this engaging narrative, brought to life by marine artist Ian Marshall’s beautiful full‑color paintings, historian Paul Kennedy grapples with the rise and fall of the Great Powers during World War II. Using archival sources, narrative history, and voices from the period, Victory at Sea moves between close observation and a wider account of the systems surrounding its subject. By placing Victory at Sea within history, the book reveals why its central tensions extend well beyond one person, place, or moment.
