Republics Ancient and Modern: Inventions of Prudence : Constituting the American Regime

Rating:
Summary: Delightful presentation of a truly fantastic era
Review: Paul Rahe depicts in nearly perfect form the ways and wonders of the ancient world. A wonderful informative on the political and economic intricacies of ancient Athens and Sparta, as well as surrounding Greek city-states, with brief allusions to our modern society. The only reason why I do not give this book a 5 is because, alas, no one is perfect. A must have in any classics library.
