Description

This history of ancient diplomacy demonstrates how the ancient Greeks used guest friendship as a mechanism of diplomacy. Ancient proxenio were the equivalent of contemporary consul generals and they served the same purposes. The proxenio conducted the diplomatic affairs of the state they represented and looked after the interests of the city state that had adopted them. In times of war the proxenio applied specialized forces such as cavalry and archers. They also maintained spies and supplied intelligence on the movements of fleets and armies.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
