Beschreibung

Formidable and sophisticated, triremes were the deadliest battleships of the ancient world and at the height of their success the Athenians were the dominant exponents of their devastating power. This book offers an analysis of the potent battleship; the weapon by which Athens achieved, maintained, and ultimately lost its power and prosperity.
