Men against the Sea 



Edvtfard Shackleton 



When men have set out on the sea, whether 

 in search of new lands, new trade routes, 

 or against an enemy, they have had to choose 

 their ships welt. We know relatively little 

 about ships of the classical world. Not 

 until the fifteenth century do we begin to 

 find detailed records. The Unicorn, a large 

 galley of Henry Vlll's navy, is shown here.
