Red Star Over The Pacific China's Rise and the Challenge to U.S Maritime Strategy

---

"Combining Yoshihara's close knowledge of Asia and an ability to tap Chinese-language sources with Holmes' naval combat experience and expertise in seapower theory, both authors are able to assess how the rise of Chinese seapower will affect U.S. maritime strategy in Asia. They argue that China is laying the groundwork for a sustained challenge to American primacy in maritime Asia. To defend this hypothesis they look back to Alfred Thayer Mahan's seapower theories, now popular with the Chinese, and conclude that unless Washington adapts, China will present a major challenge to America's strategic position.

RED STR OVER THE PACIFIC

""Red Star Over the Pacific is a timely, focused, and persuasive analysis of Chinese naval strategy that stands well above other works on the topic. The patient, solid scholarship and nuanced argumentation of the work offer a comprehensive perspective of Chinese strategic thinking and naval development and their ramifications for the United States.... [It] fills a significant gap in military and strategic analysis between grand but often empty theories of international relations and overly detailed analysis of specific ships or weapons.... Casual readers, naval historians, military officers, and perhaps some Chinese readers should all benefit from this work, which is likely to become a benchmark text in a burgeoning field.""

-Joint Force Quarterly

""Red Star Over the Pacific is an academic work that reads fluently and is imbued with the love of subject. It is exhaustive, yet spare. This is not a sterile treatment of naval issues, but a book filled with historical, geographical, and geostrategic knowledge.... If you are going to read one book about the Chinese military, read this one.""

-Robert D. Kaplan is a national correspondent for The Atlantic, senior fellow at the Center for a New American Security, and author of several books, most recently The Revenge of Geograplry"
