Summary: Good Follow up to Greek and Roman Naval Warfare
Comment: Rodgers takes up the story of Naval tactics and ship design in the 4th century CE and goes to the defeat of the Spanish Armada. The diagrams and maps are helplful is showing the changes is the design of ships over time.
If you have read Rodgers other book "Greek and Roman Naval Warfare" I highly recomend this book. It gives good detail of the campaigns of Belisarius and narses in the Reconquest under Justinian. The naval engagements of the Middle Ages are covered along with the exploits of the Vikings.
The narrative is easily to follow even though every now and ten it gets a bit drawn out. Anyone interested the history of naval combat should read this very valuable book.
