Book Description
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. Very Good++./Very Good. 1947. Reprint. Hardback. Second impression. There is no lack of authentic detail or historical accuracy in the story which this imagined Athenian citizen tells of the Peloponnesian war. It is a close-up of crude democracy, shrewd oligarchy and brainless aristocracy, all typically at logger-heads in the Athens of Cleon and Socrates. This book stands out as a notable historical novel. End paper maps. Dust-jacket has minor rubbing and tiny chipping to corners and top/bottom of spine - repaired with archival tape; jacket is in loose protective cover. A Very Good++ copy in a Very Good dust-jacket. .
