Summary:
The A to Z of Ancient Greek Warfare strategically traces Greekwarfare from 720 to 30 BC and its specific and extensive details-the
wars, the troops, the armor, the military tactics, and other factors
either affecting or affected by the wars.Read how warfare evolved
during the centuries in ancient Greece from rudimentary,
non-sophisticated strategies and weaponry to more complex arsenals
and tactics. Includes entries on many aspects of war for which
ancient Greece is historically recognized, as well as profiles of
famous military and civilian leaders, including Alcibiades and
Alexander the Great, who were involved in the battles on both land
and sea. An extensive bibliography suggests further reading of
interest. No other general work on ancient Greek warfare covers the
entire period included in this volume.
