1974réf. 4468Cambridge University Press. Near Fine in Very Good dust jacket. Hardcover. DJ is price-clipped. Light spotting to DJ. Slight sticker remnants to back panel. Very light foxing to textblock.; 246 pages; Dispatched to Sicily in 344 BC as an elderly man at the head of a small motley band of mercenaries Timoleon had no experience of the island. Yet in less than eight years Timoleon overthrew tyrants expelled the Carthaginians and introduced peace prosperity and constitutional government to an area which for decades had known only disorder. The peace he had brought was broken after his death and tyranny returned in 317 BC; but the prosperity which he had set in motion continued to increase well into the third century. Dr Talbert has deliberately avoided the temptation to write a biography and has confined himself to coverage of those aspects of Timeleon's work for which some evidence survives. He examines closely the uneven and frequently eulogistic accounts left by ancient writers. He also discusses fully the light thrown on Timoleon's revival by the discovery of numerous silver coin hoards in Sicily and by archaeological excavations undertaken there since the Second World War. His studies add up to a most thorough investigation of Timoleon's work. . 1974. 0521204194 . Cambridge University Press hardcover

Bottom corner is slight bumped.; Clarendon Paperbacks; 0.97 x 9.23 x 6.24 Inches; 440 pages; In 338 BC Philip II of Macedon established Macedonian rule over Greece; he was succeeded in 336 by his son Alexander the Great whose conquests in the twelve years that followed reached as far as the Russian steppes Afghanistan and the Punjab and created the Hellenistic world. The study of Macedonia is now a growing point in ancient history. The first ever history of ancient Macedonia has now been completed in three volumes by N. G. L. Hammond helped by G. T. Griffith and F. W. Walbank. On the basis of that work Professor Hammond now provides in one volume a history of the Macedonian state and its institutions both in Europe and in the Hellenistic kingdoms in Asia and Egypt on which much new light has been shed by epigraphic and archaeological discoveries. Those institutions have had a profound influence on subsequent history. Full references are given to the ancient sources of information and to archaeological numismatic and epigraphic articles. . 1992. 0198149271 . Oxford University Press paperback

DJ is price-clipped.; This book is written in the belief that a proper understanding of Greek civilization in antiquity requires some knowledge of its background of seafaring. A knowledge of nautical practice is required for an understanding of some passages of Greek poetry and prose writing and for a correct interpretation of numerous historical events. This is an attempt at a thorough study of the evidence both literary and archaeological. Modern reference books tend to repeat the misconceptions of nineteenth-century scholars. In contrast Mr Morrison and Mr Williams have written a scholarly and scientific study of the subject. They collect in this volume evidence for Greek oared ships between 900 and 322 BC. The book is primarily a catalogue of decorated pottery and quotations from literature and from naval inventories. The pottery is illustrated by diagrams and plates; and the quotations are given in full.; 356 pages . 1968. 0521057701 . Cambridge University Press hardcover
