Sample Book Insights:
#1 I first heard about Themistocles when I was an eight-year-old boy. My family had just moved to Athens, Greece, because my father, a major in the US Marine Corps at the time, had received orders to be the assistant naval attaché at the local US embassy. He had been chosen for this assignment because he was Greek American and spoke Greek.
#2 The story of Themistocles is a prime example of how character inspires character. The ancient Greek admiral was a remarkably influential and self-assured voice in military and political life.
#3 Themistocles was a politician in Athens who helped build the city into a seagoing power. He was elected archon at the age of thirty-one, and his strategic vision and practical ability to move supporters helped save Greece’s democracy a decade after his service as archon.
#4 Themistocles, the leader of the Athenians, knew that they needed a navy to protect them from the Persians. He used his famous oratorical skills to convince his countrymen of the need for sea power, by talking about the threat of pirates on Aegina island.
