Originally published in 1837, this is the most important and readable of the Victorian histories of ancient Greece. This new edition includes the text of a never-before-published 'third volume'.
'Fascinating and valuable.' - The Journal of Classics Teaching
'This splendid bicentenary edition ... has a captivating story that deserves to be known ... [it] is thus meritous both because it recovers an important book from oblivion and because it completes the 1837 edition ... we have now the most complete edition of Bulwer's reconstruction and interpretation of Athenian's rerum gestarum ... it is a precious document.' - BMCR
