Publisher's summary
Take a voyage to the crucible of Western civilization and explore the country whose culture and politics shaped the foundation of modern society.
What is it about the ancient Greek world that makes it so pivotal? Why, thousands of years later, is it still alive and captivating our imaginations, not to mention forming the basis for many of our legal and political proceedings?
The social and cultural legacy of the Greeks was so significant that even Rome, who conquered Greece, assimilated much of its culture. From art and myth to science and history, the story of Greek civilization holds the seeds of many aspects of modern life.
In this book, you’ll explore the true history, culture, and politics of Ancient Greece. In a concise, entertaining, and easy-to-read narrative, you’ll discover:
- How Greece’s unique geographical pockets influenced its growth
- What prehistoric and so-called “Dark Age” civilizations contributed to later culture
- Where modern traditions like marathons and the Olympics really came from
- Why the fifth century BCE is known as the “Golden Age” of Athens
- What caused the decades-long Peloponnesian war between Athens and Sparta
- Why military leaders like Darius of Persia, Pericles, and Alexander the Great had such an impact
- How revolutions in thought, art, and politics shaped Ancient Greece and our world today
And much more.
Whether you’re looking for an introduction to Ancient Greece or a new source of study, reading this book will give you a clear overview of the Greek world and the streams of major figures, events, and ideas that influenced it. Scroll up and listen now.

The Wendels built a fortune from New York real estate, and rubbed shoulders with the Astors, Vanderbilts, and Stuyvesants. But as the 19th century came to an end, the Wendel family tore itself apart. Following six years of painstaking archival research, Claire Prentice has prised open the door of the Wendels’ Fifth Avenue mansion—dubbed “the house of mystery” by the press—to reveal a fascinating and dysfunctional family imprisoned in a gilded cage.

Story
The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.

Story
The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.
