NAVIES OF ROME
by Pitassi, Michael
2-90230
Softcover reprint.
Examines the Roman Navy as an independent arm of the military, with the Empire as much maritime as land-based. The Roman Navy secured the trade routes and maintained the communications that allowed the Roman Empire to exist, brought previously untouchable and unreachable enemies to battle, and enabled the expansion of Imperial power into areas thought hitherto inaccessible.
Contains detailed reconstructions of the ships themselves, provides an engaging survey of the craft, their crewmen, and the navy's major contribution to the Empire's growth. Includes 20 color and 70 b/w illust, bibliography, and index.
