Carol J. King is Associate Professor of Classics at Grenfell Campus, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada. She has taught classics and ancient history courses at several universities in the US and Canada. Her primary research focuses on the historiography of Alexander the Great and the literary evidence for ancient Macedonia more broadly. In addition to political and military history, she has also published on divination practices in ancient Macedonia.
This authoritative, well-written narrative history of ancient Macedonia, from its early days to absorption by Rome, is sorely needed, and will become a staple of university courses to do with ancient Greece and Macedonia. The numerous illustrations help to bring the text alive, and a stand-alone chapter on the Macedonian military helps to show how and why the army was the most feared and successful before that of Rome.- Professor Ian Worthington, University of Missouri, USA
