Description

The history of Macedonia--the most remarkable of all monarchic states--is here presented from the death of Philip II through the state's loss of independence in 167 B.C. Recent discoveries about Macedonian arts and institutions have aided the authors in recounting the impact of Alexander's career, the civil war between the generals, and the final phase of Macedonian history, the wars with Rome.

Reviews

"Fulfills a genuine need in Hellenistic history....Of indispensable value for all Hellenistic historians and students of Roman imperialism."--American Historical Review

"In many ways this third volume is the best....This is the standard (indeed, virtually the only) work and likely to long remain so. Recommended for public, college, and university libraries."--Choice
