Ancient rulers sought land, tribute, and glory, but their power also depended on coastal routes and working harbors. This book examines Mediterranean competition through shipping, colonies, alliances, and contested shorelines. It keeps political ambition close to the lives of sailors, merchants, interpreters, and port communities who made exchange possible. The result is a history of empires seen from the waterline.
