<p><strong>'Fascinating and valuable.' </strong><em>- The Journal of Classics Teaching</em></p><p><strong>'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.' - </strong><em>BMCR</em></p>

Athens: Its Rise and Fall, originally published in 1837, is the most important and readable of the Victorian histories of ancient Greece. It stands alongside Macauley and Carlyle as a great historical work of British Romanticism, and anticipates the thinking of George Grote and John Stuart Mill on Greek history by over a decade.Originally published in two volumes, this new one-volume edition includes the text of the never-before published 'third volume' on which he was working at the time of his death, recently rediscovered by Oxford academic Oswyn Murray.An absolute must for any scholar of ancient Greece.
