I have a few books by Hanson - but not this one. He put me off his own approach with his other efforts. I'm certain he is a worthy author and commentator but there is something decidedly odd about a guy who pointedly calls (as he does in one book) the Spartan contingent at Thermopylai as being King Leonidas and his 299 :?
