Thucydides' Peloponnesian War is one of the first written histories dependent on eyewitness accounts and primary sources to be produced in the Western world. The work is divided into several parts: an introductory book a section on The Ten Years War focused on the conflict between Athens and Corinth the peace that followed this war The Peace of Nicias the Sicilian War the Plague that struck Athens with the last book Book 8 a portion of Thucydides history on the Decelean War. Thucydides intended his histories to describe the events that directly follow the ones recorded by Herodotus. He began writing the books soon after the Peloponnesian War started and recorded several of the events soon after they happened. From his 20s to his 50s Thucydides worked on his histories and the work reflects his changing perspective over time. His scientific exacting approach to describing the causes of the war and the fall of Athens along with his brief and concise prose all help his work to stand apart from the other historical writings of Classical Antiquity. Binding is Near Fine with two tiny splits to the paper over the joints leaves rarely show foxing with one or two corners missing not affecting the text marginal annotations or the catch words. Overall a nice clean copy. Vincenzo Vaugris [= Vincenzo Valgrisi] hardcover
