Book Synopsis Philip of Macedon by : Nicholas Geoffrey Lemprière Hammond
Book excerpt: "Philip was a genius of extraordinary versatility. Inheriting a kingdom near to collapse, he made Macedonia the greatest military power in the Western world and left to his son Alexander the strongest state in Eastern Europe. This book gives full attention to the Macedonian state and the Macedonian people who made Philip's success possible, and to the high level of culture and of artistic skills revealed by recent archaeological discoveries."--Bloomsbury Publishing
