Now reissued in a fourth, updated edition, this book provides a
concise, illustrated introduction to the modern history of Greece,
from the first stirrings of the national movement in the late
eighteenth century to the present day. As Greece emerges from a
devastating economic crisis, this fourth edition offers analyses of
contemporary political, economic and social developments. It
includes additional illustrations, together with updated tables and
suggestions for further reading. A new concluding chapter considers
the trajectory of Greek history over the two hundred years since
the beginning of the War of Independence in 1821. Designed to
provide a basic introduction, the first edition of this hugely
successful Concise History won the Runciman Award for a best book
on an Hellenic topic in 1992 and has been translated into thirteen
languages, including all the languages of the Balkans.
