A History of the Greek World from 479 to 323 B.C. (1957) examines the period of Greek history – from the end of the Persian Wars to the death of Alexander the Great – which can claim to be unique in the history of the world. Into the brief space of five generations are crowded such a galaxy of great poets, artists, politicians and thinkers, whose creative achievements directly or indirectly exerted an unparalleled influence on Western civilisation since.
