Early European History by Webster and Hutton is a comprehensive textbook that covers the history of Europe from the prehistoric era to the end of the medieval period. The book presents a detailed account of the political, social, economic, and cultural developments that shaped Europe during this period. It explores the early civilizations of Greece and Rome, the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, the emergence of Christianity, the barbarian invasions, the Dark Ages, the Carolingian Empire, the Viking Age, the Crusades, the Hundred Years' War, and the Renaissance. The authors provide a balanced and nuanced analysis of the key events, personalities, and ideas that defined European history during this time. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it an ideal resource for students, scholars, and general readers interested in European history. It is also richly illustrated with maps, photographs, and illustrations that help bring the history to life. Overall, Early European History is an essential text for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the origins of modern Europe.The battle of Salamis affords an interesting example of naval tactics in antiquity. The trireme was regarded as a missile to be hurled with sudden violence against the opposing ship, in order to disable or sink it. A sea fight became a series of maneuvers; and victory depended as much on the skill of the rowers and steersmen as on the bravery of the soldiers. The Persians at Salamis had many more ships than the Greeks, but Themistocles rightly believed that in the narrow strait their numbers would be a real disadvantage to them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
