New York: Dial Press, 1967 Book. Fine. Hardcover. Book Club Edition. When the Athenians took the island of Sphacteria, there was one among the Spartans, a youth name Ariston, who would not surrender, who thrust out his sword and made a desperate, suicidal charge. But Ariston was fated to live- he was saved by a blow from Orchomenus, the Spartan soldier who loved and hated him too much to let him die. He came to Athens a slave, a prostitute whose favors were sold by Polyxenus, the bathhouse keeper. In time, although not a citizen, he was to become one of the most powerful men in his adopted city, the friend and patron of Sokrates and Eurepides, the embodiment of all that was finest in the Athenian spirit. But always Ariston lived in the shadow of a black day in Sparta when, because of him, a beautiful young girl was hideously slaughtered- again and again suffering and death came close to those he loved..

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1946 Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st UK Edition. "Nicanor's story is an attempt to picture life in the great days of a great war... The raw materials of my book are the cold lucid pages of Thucydides, who owned gold mines and who wrote history; the pamphlets of Plato who was a humanist, but who has a charm which is unique; the plays of Aristophanes the poet, which are inspired ed with that prophetic instinct which is the great gift of the comic Muse; and last the turgid pages of the egregious Xenophon." 359p.

Description:
New York: Bantam, 2000 Book. New. Trade Paperback. First Thus. Brilliant at war, a master of politics, and a charismatic lover, Alcibiades was Athens' favorite son and the city's greatest general. A prodigal follower of Socrates, he embodied both the best and the worst of the Golden Age of Greece. A commander on both land and sea, he led his armies to victory after victory. But like the heroes in a great Greek tragedy, he was a victim of his own pride, arrogance, excess, and ambition. Accused of crimes against the state, he was banished from his beloved Athens, only to take up arms in the service of his former enemies. For nearly three decades, Greece burned with war and Alcibiades helped bring victories to both sides ? and ended up trusted by neither. Narrated from death row by Alcibiades' bodyguard and assassin, a man whose own love and loathing for his former commander mirrors the mixed emotions felt by all Athens, Tides of War tells an epic saga of an extraordinary century, a war that… Read More
