Peloponnesolaissota by Thucydides
A rigorous, eyewitness account of the long war between Athens and Sparta that traces the political causes, major campaigns and civic crises—including the Athenian plague, Pericles’ leadership, the Melian Dialogue and the Sicilian Expedition—and analyzes how power, alliance politics, strategic decisions and internal revolutions shaped outcomes, written in an empirical, analytical style that reconstructs speeches and emphasizes causation and human behavior in wartime.
