Considered essential reading for generals, statesmen & liberally educated citizens for more than 2,000 years, 'The Peloponnesian War' is a mine of military, moral, political & philosophical wisdom. However, this classic book has long presented obstacles to the uninitiated reader. Written centuries before the rise of modern historiography, Thucydides' narrative is not continuous or linear. His authoritative chronicle of what he considered the greatest war of all time is rigorous & meticulous, yet omits the many aides to comprehension modern readers take for granted, such as brief biographies of the story's main characters, maps & other visual enhancements, & background on the military, cultural & political traditions of ancient Greece. Robert Strassler's new edition amends these omissions & not only provides a new coherence to the narrative overall but effectively reconstructs the lost cultural context that Thucydides shared w/ his original audience. Based on the venerable Richard Crawley translation, updated & revised for modern readers, 'The Landmark Thucydides' includes a vast array of superbly designed & presented maps, brief informative appendices by outstanding classical scholars on subjects of special relevance to the text, explanatory marginal notes on each page, an index of unprecedented subtlety, & numerous other useful features. Readers will find that w/this edition they can dip into the text at any point & be immediately oriented w/ regard to the geography, season, date, & stage of the conflict. In any list of great books of Western Civilization, 'The Peloponnesian War' stands near the top. This handsome, elegant & authoritative new edition will ensure that its greatness is appreciated by future generations. * "This is the best book w/ which to start the study of Thucydides & the Peloponnesian War. It presents the finest English translation. Its maps, scholarly appendices, & notes permit the beginner to understand the text & to move easily & at once to a higher level of study than has been possible up to now." - Donald Kagan, author of 'On the Origins of War' & 'Pericles of Athens' * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL (or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for a below-cost additional fee) & via USPS FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL for at-cost rates quoted upon request.
