Taking a chronological approach that allows him to present at each stage the choices that were open to both sides in the conflict, Kagan focuses on political, economic, diplomatic, and military developments. He evaluates the strategies used by both sides and reconsiders the roles played by several key individuals.HISTORYbisacMilitary / GeneralbisacRegions & Countries - EuropeHILCCHistory & ArchaeologyHILCCGreeceHILCCGreeceHistoryPeloponnesian War, 431-404 B.CGreeceHistoriographyHISTORYMilitary / GeneralRegions & Countries - EuropeHistory & ArchaeologyGreece938/.05Kagan Donald185804DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910966680903321Archidamian war539573UNINA
