Would you add me please? Thanks.

Victor Davis Hanson has a fine chapter on Lepanto in His Carnage and Culture: Landmark Battles in the Rise of Western Civilization.

Victor Davis Hanson has a fine chapter on Lepanto in His Carnage and Culture: Landmark Battles in the Rise of Western Civilization.

He was the inspiration for the ping list. The man truly is America's best historian.

Excellent book.

Highly recommended.

Don't mess with Westerners.

The same qualities that make us effective in commerce make us remarkably effective killers.

I am currently reading Hanson's Carnage and Culture...an excellent book!

For an excellent history of the Battle of Lepanto, and also an excellent example of the art of narrative prose, read "The Galleys at Lepanto" by Jack Beeching. I believe it is out of print, but you can find used copies for sale at amazon.com and other places. It's a riveting read.
