The Rise and Fall of Athens: Nine Greek Lives Paperback – September 30, 1960
In an editorial review of "The Rise and Fall of Athens: Nine Greek Lives," the Penguin edition of Plutarch's work is described as both complex and rich in information but lacking in depth of understanding of its subjects. The translation by Ian Scott-Kilvert is noted for its easy readability and clear footnoting, making the book a great value. The selection of lives included is praised as particularly suitable for those interested in ancient Athens. However, the introduction and maps are criticized as meager and unhelpful. The work as a whole is recommended as an illuminating alternative to longer historical texts for those interested in classical Athens.
