How did the ancient Greeks fight? Did their armies and fleets include mercenaries? Slaves? Pirates? How did they pay their fighters? How did they treat their vanquished? Did fortifications and surrounding walls offer better chances of survival and freedom for both defenders and the population? This book answers these questions, and many others. It consists of 22 studies, expanded and edited by Sylvian Fachard, in collaboration with the author.
