The Grand Strategy Of Classical Sparta Paul Anthony Rahe by Paul Anthony Rahe 9780300227093, 0300227094 instant download after payment.

A fresh appreciation of the pivotal role of
Spartan strategy and tactics in the defeat of the mightiest empire of
the ancient world

More than 2500 years ago a
confederation of small Greek city-states defeated the invading armies of
Persia, the most powerful empire in the world. In this meticulously
researched study, historian Paul Rahe argues that Sparta was responsible
for the initial establishment of the Hellenic defensive coalition and
was, in fact, the most essential player in its ultimate victory.


Drawing from an impressive range of ancient sources, including
Herodotus and Plutarch, the author veers from the traditional
Atheno-centric view of the Greco-Persian Wars to examine from a Spartan
perspective the grand strategy that halted the Persian juggernaut. Rahe
provides a fascinating, detailed picture of life in Sparta circa 480
B.C., revealing how the Spartans' form of government and the regimen to
which they subjected themselves instilled within them the pride,
confidence, discipline, and discernment necessary to forge an alliance
that would stand firm against a great empire, driven by religious
fervor, that held sway over two-fifths of the human race.
