Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The History of Greece From Its Commencement to the Close of the Independence of the Greek Nation, Vol. 4 of 4
In other respects too a good deal that is new will be found in this volume. The special attention which I have devoted to Asia Minor is intended to meet the demands of the present day. For chapters 25-27 Th. Reinach's narrative has served me as a guide, his. Mithridale Eupator being one of the few works on ancient history which fully come up to the required standard, not only in scholarship but in descriptive skill. On the other hand, I have endeavoured to reduce the importance of Alexandria to more modest dimensions. Finally, I may point out that the self-government of the Greeks under the supremacy of the Kings and the Romans, on which I have laid stress, is a historical fact of some importance, and that consequently the study of this section of ancient history may be more profitable than some authorities of our day seem to think.
