Covers all major events of the war in clear, concise language. I understood everything, but the Audible version suffers heavily from the absence of maps to reference. I checked out the book in paperback and it makes a lot more sense when you have a map to follow.

This is not the fault of the author or of the narrator. This is just a drawback of the audiobook format: you're not going to have a map handy when you're running, lifting weights, or driving.

If you're not familiar with the geography of ancient Greece... and I mean FAMILIAR...do yourself a favor and buy the paperback. It's like 20 dollars. You spend more on Starbucks.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
