The navy has a rich history. Plunge into it - and you will find yourself in ancient Egypt, the cradle of the Navy, and in ancient Greece with its clear division between merchant and military ships. You will become witnesses and to some extent participants in the greatest naval battles under the command of fearless naval commanders, on whose decisions the outcome of the battle largely depended. Ride a trireme and a galleon, a nao and a caravel, and then, if you want, descend into the depths of the sea in the first mechanical submarine or take off skyward from a modern aircraft carrier. Don't be surprised at all this. Our book not only contains a lot of interesting and informative information and expands your erudition - it also gives room for fantasy flight! And this is so important for a young captain who dreams of connecting his life with the sea in the future.
