My Internet was mute for nearly a month and only now I begin to recover from this unpleasant experience. This is what I did in a few past days:
I uploaded my article, John of Plano Carpini, for Discussion.

This is a chapter from the last unit of my book, "The Enchanting Encounter with the East." I was delighted to learn that I have got 9,500 views. I am nearing my current goal of 10 K.
I have edited a chapter from my third project, The Fright and Thrill of Navigation: Seafaring in the Medieval and the Renaissance Mediterranean. The paper is titled "Early Light Galleys" and has the following outline:
a: LBR dimensions [length to beam ratio]
b: functions of galleys
c: Sailing season
d: nocturnal voyage
e: Operational range
f: Speed and watering of the crews
g: Coastal shipping and beaching
h: Shipworm and Life Expectancy
i: Visibility
j: Seaworthiness
l: Latin achievements
m: Medieval Triremes & Centerline Rudder
n: Horse transports
o: Purpose-built galleys
I am currently collecting data for another chapter about the tactics of naval warfare.
