This is a study of sea power and maritime strategy in the Classical Greek world. More than just a study of navies and battles, it examines how the sea was used to influence events ashore and how the use of naval power combined with land power had a defining impact on the period. After an examination of the oft-overlooked practical issues of navigation and administration, the book explores the idea of a ‘maritime consciousness’ in Greece and how this shaped the way the Greeks engaged in war. Naval operations from the Persian Wars down to the rise of Thebes are examined at the operational and strategic level, including a catalogue of the hundreds of different maritime operations from the 5th and 4th centuries BCE. Further, while the great sea power Athens is most prominent, it looks at other city-states to examine how they utilised sea power. This new approach uses modern theory to highlight some enduring lessons of sea power. It demonstrates that Classical scholars should embrace sea power as an important concept in the Greek world. Modern scholars of naval and strategic studies should cast their gaze further back in time when looking for lessons in sea power. This book helps to bridge the scholarship between these two disciplines.

Not illustrated. 1896 edition. Excerpt: ... live, and have not forgotten them?" The king reflected for a brief space; it was plain that a struggle was going on within his breast. Of a sudden, he formed a resolution, and, drawing his sword, he said: " If fortune permits you to return to Iceland, deliver this blade to Kjartan, a colonist of Froda--" Again he hesitated: " And this ring to Thuride, his mother." " It shall be done, my lord, I promise you. I will seek Kjartan and Thuride; but from whom shall I tell them these rich gifts come?" " From one who was more friendly to the lady of Froda than to her brother, the Code of Helgafell." "And this will be all?" "Yes, all." Hervador bowed and turned away, to retrace his steps to the river bank with his companions. The king called him back. "One other precaution I recommend you to observe," he said. "This country is of great extent, and has but few ports; foreigners are threatened with death by the inhabitants of every part of it. Return direct to your home, without stopping anywhere on the way." Having thus spoken, the " White Man" made a sign, and two attendants took his horse by the bridle. He rode away from the forest glade as he had come, canopied by the folds of his white standard, with the nobles of his kingdom for his escort, while the multitude accompanied the Norsemen to their ship, in order to make sure of their departure. CHAPTER XV. SYASI-THE-FAIR. Feminine Curiosity--Syasis-Budir--A Flourishing Colony--The Skrellings again--A Fierce Fight--The Death of Syasi. Curiosity, we are told, is a feminine failing. Syasi and her companions shared that weakness with the rest of their sex. Their imagination was excited by the narratives of their husbands; they ardently desired to live among these " white men, " whom their chief...
