Very good book is L. Casson's The Ancient Mariners (second edition) (US) (UK). General informations on seafarers and sea fighters in ancient times, well writen, easy reading.

More detailed is the above mentioned Ships and Seamanship in the Ancient world by the same author, with many technical details, good scholarship.

I consider both books as a must for anyone interested in naval history.
