VERY unlikely to be Churchill I should think. AR was never a fan...
How about Theodore Roosevelt? He wrote a few books on naval warfare, all of which were quite well known and I think were re-published around the right time.
Naval Warfare in 1812, seems like a likely contender.
I've no idea really, just wondered whether it might indeed be a book famous on the other side of the pond...
