a key role in the most decisive naval battle of antiquity.


Was that the battle that played a role in the death of Socrates? Battle of Arginusae? If so, the history of it makes a great read. Wiki has a summary of it but the book I read was much better.

I believe the article mentions the Battle of Salamas in 480BC.
