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 Middle Ages. The book is divided into three parts, each focusing on a different period of European history. Part one covers the prehistoric era, the Bronze Age, and the Iron Age. Part two covers the classical civilizations of Greece and Rome, as well as the rise of Christianity and the Byzantine Empire. Part three covers the Middle Ages, including the Viking invasions, the Crusades, and the rise of feudalism.The authors provide a detailed analysis of the political, social, and economic structures of each period, as well as the major events, figures, and movements that shaped European history. They also explore the cultural and intellectual developments of each era, including art, literature, philosophy, and religion.The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both students and general readers. It includes numerous maps, illustrations, and timelines to help readers understand the historical context of each period. Overall, Early European History is an essential resource for anyone interested in the rich and complex history of 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.
