Thanks so much for all of the responses, guys. I've had a long interest in Ancient Greece, but have only recently begun trying to actually become 'familiar' with it. Mainly because I would like to do some writing (short stories).
I'll definitely see about getting those books, as well, wasn't sure what material to get.
I have one more question: Naturally stories often have to do with one person or a small group (small being relative - was thinking perhaps a little over 30 soldiers [enÅmotia?]). Naturally, as well, stories - and I - love conflict. I was wondering what would be a very common way to introduce some small-scale battles without it being too historically inaccurate.
Anyways. Thanks again everyone. You've been a great help. Came out of this decently more sure of myself and will be ordering that book.
