The Mediterranean and the Mediterranean World in the Age of Philip II" by Fernand Braudel revolutionised the study of Mediterranean history on its publication in 1949. Now, 60 years 'after Braudel', this book brings together work by area specialists and the latest research on the sea itself in the early modern period, the maritime trade that flourished there, the ships which travelled it and the men who sailed them. It opens up the subject to English-speaking readers interested in maritime history, naval history, the history of the early modern world and the historiographical legacy of Braudel.

Maria Fusaro is Professor of History, University of Exeter. Colin Heywood is Research Associate at the Department of History, SOAS. Mohamed-Salah Omri is Tutorial Fellow in Modern Arabic at the University of Oxford.
