About This Item
Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1970. Reprint 2nd ed.1967. X,164p. Folding chart. Original cloth wrps. Name and date on free endpaper. 'In this attractive book Chadwick shows not only his scholarship and gift of clear exposition, but also a story-teller's flair for the dramatic moments of an exciting tale. His book is a pleasure to read; it is also, thanks to the Cambridge University Press, an ornament to the bookshelf, and even the elegant dus jacket, with notes and illustrations, was designed for a better fate than the waste-paper-basket.' (D.M. JONES in The Classical Review (New Series), 1959, p.225).

About Scrinium Classical Antiquity
Scrinium stands for a specialized stock of new, secondhand and antiquarian books about Classical Antiquity. The main theme of our books is Classical Antiquity: texts and commentaries, translations, archeology, philosophy, travel, history, mythology, books for young people, philology, law, reception of classical motives in Middle Ages, Renaissance and our own time and neo-Hellenika (conptemporary Greece), and many more subjects. A more modest quantity of our books concerns countries, civilisations and religious movements on the edges of the classical world: e.g. Egypt, Middle East and Early Christianity. New books are partly in stock, partly to be ordered from publishers. We are connected to a large number of publishers and distributors, established both in the Netherlands and abroad.
