Considered essential reading for generals, statesmen, and liberally educated citizens for more than 2,000 years, The Peloponnesian War is a mine of military, moral, political, and philosophical wisdom.Written four hundred years before the birth of Christ, this detailed contemporary account of the 27-year war between Athens and Sparta stands an excellent chance of fulfilling its author's ambitious claim. Thucydides himself (c.460-400 BC) was an Athenian and achieved the rank of general in the earlier stages of the war.Thucydides is regarded as one of the 1st true historians. Like his predecessor Herodotus, he places a high value on autopsy & eyewitness testimony. He was the 1st who attempted anything like modern objectivity and didn't recognize divine interventions.
