Discusses the Peloponnesian war as a struggle between a land and a sea power that descends into a grim struggle, in which moral standards decline and atrocities are perpetrated on civilian populations. This work looks at the mixture of attitudes that emerge among commanders - some put honour above all else while others pursue personal ambition.
Godfrey Hutchinson was educated at the Universities of Durham and Newcastle upon Tyne. He has engaged in several research projects within the Classical period. He lives in Darlington.
