Howdy,
Maybe someone here can help me out.
The plot of my fantasy novel has seen fit to guide me into battles on the high seas. Man-o-wars and ballistas, swords and sorcery, ramming and amphibious landings. Obviously pre-cannon era. That puts me in a bit of a bind. I could read up Treasure Island or watch Pirates of the Carribean, again (great flick). But I'd like to get more in the mindset using something more relevant to the era.
Can anyone recommend books or even movies that might be able to help me out? I work in a library so I can usually get pretty much anything out there. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
