The History Of The Chalcidic League (1919)

The History of the Chalcidic League, written by Allen Brown West and published in 1919, is a comprehensive account of the ancient Greek city-state alliance known as the Chalcidic League. The book covers the origins of the league, its political and military organization, and its role in the wider context of Greek history. West draws on a wide range of ancient sources to provide a detailed and engaging narrative of the league's development, from its founding in the 5th century BCE to its eventual dissolution in the 4th century BCE. Along the way, he explores the league's relationships with other Greek city-states, including Athens and Sparta, and its involvement in key historical events, such as the Peloponnesian War and the Macedonian conquests. The History of the Chalcidic League is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Greek history, politics, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
