Description
As commander on land & sea, Alcibiades was never defeated. Kinsman of Pericles, protégé of Socrates, the warrior was renowned as the most brilliant & charismatic personality of his day, as--fearlessly ambitious, politically ruthless--he forever altered Athens' destiny. During the twenty-seven-year Peloponnesian War, he swept from victory to victory, seemingly invincible. And then, in a shattering twist of fortune, he tumbled from glory. Recounted by Alcibiades' trusted bodyguard & hired assassin in a mesmerizing death-row confession, Tides of War is historical fiction at its finest--a rich & moving flesh-and-blood retelling of one of history's pivotal conflicts, written by an incomparable master of historical fiction.
