Historie

Naval battles have long captured the popular imagination, from confrontations between Greece and Sparta in the ancient world to epic conflicts during the World Wars and beyond. In this riveting series of lectures, Professor Timothy B. Shutt explores the naval battles that have helped to establish empires and have changed history. Professor Shutt imparts an under- standing of the importance of naval warfare and of the grandeur and daring of these awe-inspiring clashes.
