A History of Macedonia

Oxford University Press

The history of Macedonia--the most remarkable of all monarchic states--is here presented from the death of Philip II through the state's loss of independence in 167 B.C. Recent discoveries about Macedonian arts and institutions have aided the authors in recounting the impact of Alexander's career, the civil war between the generals, and the final phase of Macedonian history, the wars with Rome.

The classical age of Greece (History of civilisation)

Weidenfeld and Nicolson

Recent discoveries have thrown new light on the extent and influence of Macedonian civilization, including their pioneering skills in painting, jewellery, metalwork and architecture. Professor Hammon - who was the first scholar to identify the ancient Macedonian capital at Vergina - here describes the origins and development of Macedonia from a tiny area to the civilization which expended under the rule of Alexander the Great and his successors.

The Miracle That Was Macedonia (Sidgwick and Jackson Great Civilizations Series)

PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

History of MacEdonia

Ayer Co. Pub

Our knowledge of Alexander the Great is derived from the widely varying accounts of five authors who wrote three and more centuries after his death. The value of each account can be determined in detail only by discovering the source from which it drew, section by section, whether from a contemporary document, a memoir by a companion of Alexander, a hostile critique or a romanticizing narrative. In this book the three earliest accounts are studied in depth, and it becomes apparent that each author used more than one source, and that only occasionally did any two of them or all three use the same source for an incident or a series of incidents. This book will be of value to ancient historians and of interest also to those studying Alexander the Great.
