This volume in the LACTOR Sourcebooks in Ancient History series offers a generous selection of primary texts on Sparta, with accompanying maps, illustrations, glossary, chronology and explanatory notes. It provides for the needs of students at schools and universities who are studying ancient history in English translation and has been written and reviewed by experienced teachers. The texts selected include extracts from the important literary sources but also numerous inscriptions, many of these being otherwise difficult for students to access.
