But even during times of peace, the threat of Sparta--Athens's legendary rival--looms large on the horizon. When a sudden catastrophe brings Sparta to its knees, Pericles sees a golden opportunity to forever shift the balance of power in his city's favor. For sometimes, the only way to win lasting peace is to wage war. Sparta may be weak, but their power is far from extinguished. Soon a ruthless young boy steps forward to lead the Spartans back to greatness. As the drums of battle draw closer, can Pericles rise to victory once more--or will the world's greatest empire fall under his watch? 600 00 $a Pericles, $d approximately 495 B.C.-429 B.C. $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Statesmen $z Greece $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Greece $x History $y Athenian supremacy, 479-431 B.C. $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Athens (Greece) $x History $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Sparta (Extinct city) $x History $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a War fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 7 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509012126.0 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20240323010442.0 952 $l SPPE104 $d 20240116010546.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20231003011359.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230802010956.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230701010025.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230603010728.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F893835801D311EEACDD33752EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
