This book is written in the belief that a proper understanding of Greek civilization in antiquity requires some knowledge of its background of seafaring. A knowledge of nautical practice is required for an understanding of some passages of Greek poetry and prose writing. This is an attempt at a thorough study of the evidence, both literary and archaeological.Morrison, John S. is the author of 'Greek Oared Ships, 900 - 322 B.C.', published 1968 under ISBN 9780521057707 and ISBN 0521057701.
