Preface -- 1. Introduction: 'Thou shalt not pass' -- 2. Britain, France, and Napoleon's Continental Systems, 1793-1815 -- 3. The United States versus Great Britain, 1776-1815 -- 4. The North blockades the Confederacy, 1861-1865 -- 5. International law and naval blockades during World War I: Britain, Germany, and the United States: traditional strategies versus the submarine -- 6. Legal and economic aspects of naval blockades: the United States, Great Britain, and Germany in World War II -- 7. The American submarine and aerial mine blockade of the Japanese home islands, 1941-1945 -- 8. Blockades without war: from Pacific blockades to sanctions -- 9. Blockades, war, and international law: what it all means -- Conclusion.

A number of major blockades, including the Continental System in the Napoleonic Wars, the War of 1812, the American Civil War, and World Wars I and II, in addition to the increased use of peacetime blockades and sanctions with the hope of avoiding war, are examined in this book. The impact of technology and organizational changes on the nature of blockades and their effectiveness as military measures are discussed. Legal, economic, and political questions are explored to understand the various constraints upon belligerent behavior. The analysis draw upon the extensive amount of quantitative material available from military publications.
