From the Battle of Marathon to the Minotaur, from the Acropolis to Aristotle, from Theseus to the Theban hegemony, from slavery to Sparta, The Encyclopedia of Ancient Greece is a fascinating fully illustrated reference work, spanning both political history, society, wars, art, architecture, culture, philosophy and mythology. Covering the founding of the Minoan civilization on Crete in the 3rd millennium BCE, Mycenaean Greece in the 2nd millennium, the Greek Dark Ages and the heights of Athenian civilization in the 5th and 4th centuries BCE, the book expertly examines a wide range of aspects of the civilization that is considered to be the foundation of Western culture. Thousands of years later we can easily identify the influences of ancient Greece in modern politics, society and architecture, its mythical tales are still recounted and their patterns can be spotted throughout modern literature, television and film. Featuring more than 400 colour photographs and artworks, The Encyclopedia of Ancient Greece is an accessibly written exploration, reaching from siege warfare to Socrates, public sacrifice to public festivals to the Peloponnesian War.

I love this encyclopedia. The pricing is a bit steep on Amazon (purchased first copy at Barnes and Nobel) but otherwise it is fantastic. Beautiful images and easy to follow breakdowns. A must have for any lover of Roman history!

3.0 out of 5 stars Great book, but not really an encyclopedia. The book should be titled "highlights of Roman history."

A good book on the highlights of Roman history, but, it goes by period, not alphabetically. The maps and photos are good. Just wish it was more like an encyclopedia.

This book is attractive and is a complete explanation of Greece is complemented by explanations of Mythology and reading some ancient artifacts. A very good purchase for a person with a complete interest in Greece from History to the countries wonderful sites
This work can be complemented by Bonechi Art and History books on Athens and Greece, the photographs here seem to broaden an interest with more wonderful photographs and increase an appreciation of Greece
