The author of this review (Victor Davis Hanson) wrote a chapter about
the naval battle of Salamis in his book Carnage and Culture.
Salamis is the name "translated" by Latro as meaning Peace.
I had read Carnage and Culture shortly before I discovered Wolfe, and
I was thrilled when I recognized what Latro was writing about.
Another great resource for historical background is the Teaching
Company's audio lectures on Herodotos.
