Lepanto 1571

The Madonna's Victory

Beschreibung

The battle of Lepanto was the last major battle between fleets of oar-powered war ships. The largest naval battle since Mark Antony's Actium. It was the one major achievement of the short-lived Holy League of Catholic states. The author re-examines the battle's status as a truly decisive battle.
