George Grote’s twelve-volume History of Greece (1846–1856) is the great Victorian monument of Greek historical scholarship — comprehensive, rigorously sourced, and still respected by classicists today. Volume 10 covers the later fourth century BC — the age of Philip of Macedon and the emergence of Macedonian hegemony over Greece — bringing Grote’s long narrative toward the conquest of the old city-states and the dawn of the Hellenistic age.
This free EPUB of Volume 10 is formatted for e-readers. Grote’s liberal sympathies give his treatment of Athenian democracy particular conviction, and his detailed engagement with sources makes the full twelve-volume set an enduring scholarly resource.
