A military history of the complex series of conflicts between the Hellenistic Successor states in the generation before the Romans intervened in the region (roughly the second half of the third century BC). The authors describe Macedon's war with Cleomenes III and the final crushing of Sparta's last gasp as an independent power; and the campaigns in the east through which the Seleucid king Antiochus became known as Antiochus the Great.
