Why read it?
1 author picked Aretes de Esparta (Histórica) as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I don't know if this book has an English version, but it should still be recommended because it is the book that introduced me to the world of the Spartans, their ideology, and their way of understanding the world. For me, it is a book for seniors written as if it were for children. A fluent reading that guides you through the emotions of the protagonist, getting to share her joys and her illusions. Definitely a must-read if you want to enjoy the exciting world of ancient history.
From Christian's list on the great Spartan Nation.
