Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Barnes and Noble, New York. 1994. Hardcover. First Printing by Line Number. Book is tight, square, and unmarked. Book Condition: Fine. DJ: Near Fine; light rubbing to panels. Brown paper over boards with brick red overlay on the spine with bright gilt let…tering on the spine. 494 pp 8vo. This history of Greece spans the beginnings of the polis to the Alexandrian cosmopolis, covering leaders from Socrates to Alexander the Great himself."For anyone passionately interested in the ancient Greek world (and this today the increasing numbers of tourists who find that Greece touches some inner chord), is a book that gives significance to not only Greek culture and history, but vitality to the men who made her what she was, and understanding of the intricate interweaving of and history. This book is a history of Greece that memorably records its words and deeds and finds a haunting resonance in the events of our own critical times. Because the author has placed himself imaginatively in each period of Greek history as he narrates it, the great political, military, intellectual, and artistic achievements of Hellas unfold with dramatic suspense. And although he has carefully documented his statements, he has dared to recount the story of a great civilization in a prose that echoes the power and beauty of the poets and statesmen and thinkers whom he calls up as witness. A clean very presentable copy.
