There is an important secret to the way the Carthaginians build their galleys. Each is identical to all of the others. They are built to a standard design, and each piece is marked. You can take one apart and use it as a set of templates to build more. One unlucky Carthaginian captain is forced aground by the Romans, and he and his crew and his galley are captured. Rome uses his galley to build a fleet of 225 identical ships in less than 45 days and use this to challenge Carthaginian naval supremacy. But will Roman skill and ingenuity be enough against the experienced crews of the oaken galleys they face? It's 217 BC and Rome takes what it believes is its chance.

Autorenporträt
Born in 1956 in the East Anglian Fens in England, David moved to Nottingham to study for his business degree. In line with the current myth of the time, he met and married a local girl, and they have now been married for 44 years. They still live within 10 miles of Nottingham and have two adult children, and have happily become grandparents five times over.

Following a career in software development and IT management, David was forced to give up work in 2005 to look after both his wife and daughter, both of whom were suffering from different life-threatening illnesses. To fill the time and take his mind off of the domestic and financial issues, David eventually turned to his love of both photography and writing. Seven Sisters was the first product of the latter and has been followed by a prodigious number of works.
