Warfare in Ancient Greece - A Sourcebook (Hardcover)

"Warfare in Ancient Greece" assembles a wide range of source material and introduces the latest scholarship on the Greek experience of war. The author has carefully selected key texts, many of them not previously available in English, and provided them wiht comprehensive commentaries.
For the Greek "polis," warfare was a more usual state of affairs than peace. The documents assembled here recreate the social and historical framework in which ancient Greek warfare took place--over a period of more than a thousand years from the Homeric Age to Alexander the Great. Special attention is paid to attitudes and feelings of the Greek towards defeated peoples and captured cities.
Complete with notes, index, and bibliography, "Warfare in Ancient Greece" will provide students of Ancient and military history with an unprecedented survey of relevant materials.
