To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For when by a 8 STUDIES ON COAST DEFENSE bold initiative the war can be carried to the coast of an enemy's country, doing serious damage to his dock-yards, arsenals, forts, &c., thus paralyz- ing his naval power by action against the fundamental bases of operations of his fleet, it is highly improbable that similar attempt on the part of the enemy will be made.
But a bold initiative of this nature may, however, be unsuccessful, in ■consequence of innumerable and unforeseen contingencies to whic...h naval operations are liable ; furthermore, for the very reason that a timely ini- tiative may be so fruitful in great results, it must be expected on the part of the enemy. It may be readily conceived, then, that a victory in a naval engagement, won in distant waters, may be decisive, and in such case the one that remains in control of the seas can select at pleasure his objective on the enemy's shores where he will do the greatest damage to the seaboard cities, and bring ruin to the more important establishments, dock-yards, arsenals, &c., so that the one that has met with reverse finds himself, in consequence, exposed to extreme disaster.
