"The scholarship is topnotch and can be trusted. It has been a standard book for courses on ancient Greece for decades and has every prospect of remaining in that position." --Andrew T. Alwine, College of Charleston"I have used this text for years and never regretted the decision. The students comment that it is one of the best textbooks they have ever read." --Vanessa Gorman, University of Nebraska-Lincoln"This is a well-produced, clearly written resource that is suited to a single course which encompasses all of Greek history. The illustrations are excellent and extremely apposite. The maps are clear and economical with detail.

" --Thomas Figueira, Rutgers University"This is a fantastic textbook. The inclusion of cultural information and maps is particularly useful. The extension through the Hellenistic era is one of its greatest strengths, since many books end with Alexander's death." -- Christina Villarreal, Lehigh University.
