TRADE AND FAMINE IN CLASSICAL ANTIQUITY
Gift inscription to titlepage from editor (Peter Garnsey). Light knock to base of spine. Corners have light creasing. Mild shelfwear. ; A theme of the volume is that a combination of natural and artificial shortages made inevitable the bulk movement of staples between regions in all periods of antiquity. Novel contributions are offered in addition in relation to the cost of shipping, the extent of long-distance trade in wine, the relative demand for wheat and barley, the incidence and gravity of food crises, the efficiency of famine-relief measures and the part played by food shortages in the collapse of the late Roman frontier system. ; Cambridge Philological Society Supplementary Vol 8; 126 pages; Signed by Editor

LEONIDAS AND THE KINGS OF SPARTA Mightiest Warriors, Fairest Kingdom
Gift inscription in pen to ffep (likely from author) "In memory of the Sparta conference". Else book is fine. DJ flaps are creased. Minor shelfwear to DJ. ; Organized in a logical and chronological order, Leonidas and the Kings of Sparta: Mightiest Warriors, Fairest Kingdom describes the legendary origins of the dual kingship in Sparta, documents the many reigning eras of the kings, and then concludes with the time when the kingship was abolished six centuries later. The book examines the kings' roles in war and battle, in religion, in the social life of the city, and in formulating Spartan policy both at home and abroad. No other book on Sparta has concentrated on describing the role of the kings—and their absolutely essential contributions to Spartan society in general. ; 251 pages
