Cambridge University Press. Very Good- with no dust jacket. 1985. First Edition. Hardcover. 052130752X . Corners are bumped. Top of spine bumped. Small black 'J' stamped to titlepage. ; This volume contains a selection of the more important and influential of Professor F. W. Walbank's occasional papers.

Three deal with the role of nationality in the Greco-Roman world and with the constitutional character of Greek federal states. Others are concerned with problems of third- and second-century Roman history.

Finally, the selection includes Professor Walbank's detailed discussion of the chronology of Ptolemy IV's death and the accession of Ptolemy Epiphanes. A full bibliography of the author's publications concludes the volume. ; 400 pages .
