📚📚Ηοw familiar are you with Greece's naval history? Which do you consider the key naval events that marked the course of the country's history?
"Nautical Logbook - Sailing Through the Timeline" by Dimitris Balopoulos constitutes a maritime journey through space and time, and stands as a detailed record of themes from our Naval History, created with the intent to inform, to shed light on lesser-known aspects, and to inspire further research.
"Greek naval history is among the rare few that can carry the reader along a near-continuous thread through time.
