Isbn: 9781526760746 - the wars of alexander's successors 323-281 bc: commanders & campaigns (1) (29 risultati)

Condizione: New.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When the dying Alexander the Great was asked to whom he bequeathed his vast empire, he supposedly replied "to the strongest." There ensued a long series of struggles between his generals and governors for control of these territories. Most of these Diadochi (Successors) were consummate professionals who had learnt the art of war under Alexander or even his father, Philip. Few died a peaceful death and the last survivors of this tough breed were still leading their armies against each other well into their seventies. Colourful characters, epic battles, treachery and subterfuge make this a period with great appeal to anyone interested in ancient history and ancient warfare in particular. The wars shaped the map from the Balkans to India for the next couple of centuries. This first volume introduces the key personalities - characters such as Antigonos "Monopthalmus" (the One-eyed) and his son 'Demetrius 'Poliorcetes' (the Besieger), Seleucus 'Nicator' ('the Victorious') and Ptolemy "Soter" ("the Saviour") - and gives a narrative of the causes and course of these wars from the death of Alexander to the Battle of Corupedium (281 BC) when the last two original Diadochi faced each other one final time. AUTHOR: Bob Bennett has a Certificate in British Archaeology and an MA in Classical Studies from the Open University. Mike Roberts has a degree in South East Asian Studies from Hull University. Both social workers by profession, they met and discovered their mutual enthusiasm for the ancient world over ten years ago and have been researching the Successors of Alexander the Great ever since, creating a website dedicated to the subject. 18 b/w illustrations and 2 maps The only modern work in English devoted to clear, comprehensive narrative of the events of the Wars of the Diadochi. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
