Not just for the fact it made me laugh but the fact you decided to use your 1,000th post to do so.

No suggestions from people? I don't want to sound impatient, just trying to prevent this thread slipping out of view again.

That's dutch amazon.com. The book was in my personal reccomendations. Has anyone read it? The bibliography book about Xenophon was writen by Waterfield too, I liked it very much.

Anyone have some more info of what exactly is covered? I guess from Alexander until the death of Seleukos I Nikator, or maybe further? This sounds like a fascinating book!

Hmm well, since nobody knew the book or bothered to comment, I've just ordered it and I will report on it when it arrives at the end of this week.

Well I'll update fast, the book was delivered two days ago, but my exams kept me from uploading these pictures.

This is the cover, the first impression I get from the book are very good.

The list of contents (if you got good eyes, 3.2 megapixel), I haven't started reading yet because I am currently reading another book (In the name of Rome).
The book will span from Alexandros III Megas until Antigonos II Gonatas. And will focus mainly on the wars with a lot of detailed information.

Will Oudysseos deem this book worthy to enter his list?

What does everyone else think about it?
