Recenzii
Review from previous edition A thorough reassessment of traditionally held beliefs about Greek-Persian relations ... This work joins the serious works on Achaemenid history that scholars must consult.
For Achaemenid specialists from a classical background, non-Greek material has an exotic allure - and a greater potential for producing genuinely new evidence. But critical understanding of the comparatively familiar can be just as challenging, and Cawkwell is a master of that art.
...[a] remarkable book, the work of a choice and master historian ... It is a book to be savoured, not read through fast at one go.
a new book by one of the great figures of Greek history of the last half-century ... is not only highly readable but also provides bracing insights to any number of questions in Greek-Persian relations
The Greek Wars is the fruit of many decades' study - and it shows.
... revisionist history at its very best ... the most insightful and comprehensive analysis to date of Greek and Persian interaction
