520 8  Ancient Greeks at War is a lavishly illustrated tour de 
       force covering every aspect of warfare in the Ancient 
       Greek world from the beginnings of Greek civilization 
       through to its assimilation into the ever expanding world 
       of Rome. As such it begins with the onset Minoan culture 
       on Crete around 2,000 BC, then covers the arrival of the 
       Mycenaean civilisation and the ensuing Late Bronze Age 
       Collapse, before moving on to Dark Age and Archaic Greece.
       This sets the scene for the flowering of Classical Greek 
       civilization, as told through detailed narratives of the 
       Greek and Persian Wars, Peloponnesian Wars and the rise of
       Thebes as a major power. 0The book then moves on to the 
       onset of Macedonian domination under Philip II, before 
       focusing in detail on the exploits of his son Alexander 
       the Great, the all-conquering hero of the ancient world. 
       His legacy was the Hellenistic world with its multiple, 
       never ending series of conflicts that took place over a 
       huge territory, ranging from Italy in the west all the way
       to India in the east. Those covered include the various 
       Wars of the Successors, the rise of the Bactrian-Greek and
       Indo-Greek kingdoms, the various wars between the 
       Antigonid Macedonian, Seleucid and Ptolemaic kingdoms, and
       later the onset of the clash of cultures between the 
       rising power of Rome in the west and the Hellenistic 
       kingdoms. In the long run the latter proved unable to 
       match Rome's insatiable desire for conquest in the eastern
       Mediterranean, and this together with the rise of Parthia 
       in the east ensured that one by one the Hellenistic 
       kingdoms and states fell. The book ends with the 
       destruction of Corinth in 146 BC after the defeat by Rome 
       of the Achaean League. The conclusion considers the legacy
       of the Ancients Greeks in the Roman world, and 
       subsequently.
