Beskrivelse af Tides Of War
Steven Pressfield, author of the Sunday Times bestseller Gates of Fire, brings the conflict between Sparta and Athens to life in this epic story filled with triumph and tragedy.'Pressfield's talent is awesome...an extraordinary work - an instant classic' DAVID GEMMELL'No one writes better historical fiction than Steven Pressfield' VINCE FLYNN'The very qualities that distinguish Ridley Scott's Gladiator are here in greater concentration . . . it is nigh unbeatable' AMAZON.CO.UK'A masterful book' ***** Reader review'A book to treasure' ***** Reader review'A truly rewarding reading experience' ***** Reader review********************************ONE MAN. TWO ARMIES. THE FATE OF THE ANCIENT WORLD IN THE BALANCE.Alcibiades: Kinsman of Pericles, protégé of Socrates, immortalised by Plutarch, Plato and Thucydides. An audacious soldier and charismatic leader without equal who would come to dominate the Peloponnesian War, the devastating twenty-seven-year conflict between Athens and Sparta that brought Greece to its knees at the end of the fifth century BC.Undefeated on the battlefield, Alcibiades' popularity - and his political aspirations - fed the resentment of his rivals in Athens who secured his death warrant on a trumped-up charge of treason. Escaping to Sparta, he guided its legendary army from one military triumph to the next. Ultimately though, it was Athens that would claim his fiercest loyalty, their destinies inextricably intertwined.Tides of War paints a dazzling portrait of a remarkable man whose fortunes mirrored the ebb and flow of the tides of war.
