Dear all, I just finished this book by Owen Rees and wrote a review here: link A mixed bag, one would say! |

Too bad as it is a favorite topic of mine. |

My thoughts exactly. It makes a good primer on the subject, take advantage of the list of references at the back |

Thanks for the review. Can anyone recommend good alternatives, other than this book's bibliography? |

If you talk about trireme tactics, I have yet to find a good book about it, only good articles. The best thing I know about it is a specific chapter on "battle manouvers for fast triremes" included in the final report of the Olympia trials. I plan to provide further reviews on articles and books, if it doesn't disrupt my sculpting efforts! |
