The Battle of Chioggia

 I have created a series of articles on medieval warfare tactics, collectively titled " The Intricacies of Naval Warfare." The first two papers are available on my Academia page:

I have penned three additional essays, but they are not yet edited. Currently, I am revising one of them, tentatively titled "The Portage of Ships Across the Isthmus." However, I have paused writing the draft for my final study, "The Battle of Chioggia."

My latest paper, "The Umayyad Siege of Constantinople," has gained moderate traction with over 100 views. Interestingly, many readers have shown interest in older articles from my second book, "The Enchanting Encounter with the East: Breaking the Ice Between the Latin West and the Far East." The total view count for this book approaches 13,000, and I have over 150 followers—not bad for an independent researcher and amateur historian!

Last Monday, I delivered a Zoom lecture on "Galley Slaves," based on my previous articles:

My audience was international; in addition to listeners from Israel, I had participants from Russia and Ukraine. During the lecture, I answered questions and elaborated on the difference between pirates and corsairs. I also provided information about the watering of crews and the average speed of galleys.

Next week, I plan to complete a new draft of my article about Niketas Ooryphas, a Byzantine admiral who transported his warships overland across the Isthmus of Corinth to confuse the enemy, the Cretan Muslims.
