Excerpt from An Outline History of Greece The Chantauqua Text-book of Greek History, by J. H. Vincent, is the basis of this little volume. In chronological plan, as well as in the separate treatment of Grecian Geography, History, and Biography, the present work follows the lines which were laid down in the Text-book. In the expansion of the Text-book to the proportions of this History reference has been made to many standard writings upon the subject. In most cases credit is given in the following pages. In general cordial recognition is given of the valuable assistance derived from the Universal Histories of Ploetz, Labberton, and Fisher, and to the special works of Curteis on The Rise of Macedonia, and Cox on The Greeks and the Persians, The Athenian Empire, and Lives of Greek Statesmen.

"Wonderful…a thoughtful discussion of what made [the Greeks] so important, in their own time and in ours." —Natalie Haynes, Independent The ancient Greeks invented democracy, theater, rational science, and philosophy. They built the Parthenon and the Library of Alexandria. Yet this accomplished people never formed a single unified social or political identity. In Introducing the Ancient Greeks, acclaimed classics scholar Edith Hall offers a bold synthesis of the full 2,000 years of Hellenic history to show how the ancient Greeks were the right people, at the right time, to take up the baton of human progress. Hall portrays a uniquely rebellious, inquisitive, individualistic people whose ideas and creations continue to enthrall thinkers centuries after the Greek world was conquered by Rome. These are the Greeks as you’ve never seen them before.
