Editorial Reviews

• Product Description

  The Penguin History of Greece offers a one-volume history of Hellas, and is principally written for the reader who is not a student or expert in classical literature. Readable, erudite, enthusiastic and balanced, it sweeps the reader along from the days of Mycenae to the splendors of Athens and to the conquests of Alexander and the last dark ages, ably pin-pointing the culture, society and politics of an astonishing people.
