<b>The bestselling author of <i>The Peloponnesian War</i> examines Thucydides as the first modern historian. </b> <p/> Donald Kagan's magisterial history of the Peloponnesian War is recognized as a landmark of classical scholarship. Now, Kagan-one of the most respected classical historians in the world-turns his attention from one of the greatest conflicts in history to the author who so magnificently chronicled it: Thucydides, the first truly modern historian. This study offers readers a remarkable opportunity to experience one great historian engaging another across the centuries, in a work that is at once an engrossing voyage of discovery, a moving tribute, and a revelatory meditation on the practice of history and its value in human affairs.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Donald Kagan<br><b>Publisher:</b> Penguin Books<br><b>Published:</b> 10/26/2010<br><b>Pages:</b> 272<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.51lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.38h x 5.52w x 0.59d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780143118299<br><b>Age Range:</b> 18-UP<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br>Donald Kagan is Sterling Professor of Classics and History at Yale University.
