Paperback. Condition: New. The epic struggle between Carthage and Rome, two of the superpowers of the ancient world, is most famous for land battles in Italy, on the Iberian peninsula and in North Africa. But warfare at sea, which played a vital role in the First and Second Punic Wars, rarely receives the attention it deserves.…And it is the monumental clashes of the Carthaginian and Roman fleets in the Mediterranean that are the focus of Christa Steinby's absorbing study.She exploits new evidence, including the latest archaeological discoveries, and she looks afresh at the ancient sources and quotes extensively from them. In particular she shows how the Romans' seafaring tradition and their skill, determination and resourcefulness eventually gave them a decisive advantage. In doing so, she overturns the myths and misunderstandings that have tend to distort our understanding of Roman naval warfare.

Soft cover. Condition: New. 236 pages ; 25 cm. This study deals with the Roman republican navy from the sixth century to the aftermath of the Third Macedonian War in 167 BC. During this period of time, Rome first extended her power over the Italian Peninsula and then in consecutive wars defeated Carthage, Macedon and Syria. The…navy played an important role at all stages of the expansion of Rome s Mediterranean dominion. The Romans could not have achieved what they did without the navy. In this process, the Roman navy itself became the master of Mediterranean after it had participated in the competition for thalassocracy and defeated all the other navies.
