A selection of the most important papers of the eminent historian of ancient Greece George Cawkwell. Cawkwell focuses upon the history, warfare, and politics of the fourth century BC, and subjects the key ancient sources - Xenophon, Herodotus, Thucydides, and Demosthenes - to close scrutiny, revealing when they can be trusted and when not.
In this stimulating study that frequently challenges received opinion, George Cawkwell re-examines the whole course of Persian relations with Greek states from a Persian perspective, from the coming of Cyrus in the mid sixth century BC down to the defeat of Darius by Alexander the Great at the battle of Gaugamela in 331 BC.
