`a very useful one-volume summary, with some updating and changes of mind, of the three-volume "Oxford History of Macedonia.' History
'N.G.L. Hammond's name has become virtually synonomous with the study of the history of Macedonia. Hammond remains a much-loved figure to his colleagues, students, and fellow scholars ... He is, in short, an institution, and a venerable one at that. Macedonian State is the vintage Hammond. Indeed, it can function as the summary of and key to all other Hammond scholarship ... his vision of the unity of Macedonian past and present can often be compelling ... His strengths are well known ... Hammonds knowledge of the now largely vanished traditional culture he encountered in his early travels in Macedonia has profoundly affected his understanding of ancient Macedonian history.'Elizabeth Carney, Clemson University, Ancient History Bulletin, 5.5/6 (1991)
'A 1992 reprint as a Clarendon Paperback ... should make an essential study ... more readily available. The brief account of 'sopme Royal Tombs' ... and, even more, 'the women of the royal house' ... ought to be compulsory reading for all.'P. Walcot, Greece and Rome, October 1993
Reseña del editor
In 338 BC Philip II of Macedon established Macedonian rule over Greece; he was succeeded in 336 by his son Alexander the Great, whose conquests in the twelve years that followed reached as far as the Russian steppes, Afghanistan, and the Punjab, and created the Hellenistic world. The study of Macedonia has just been completed in three volumes by N. G. L. Hammond, helped by G. T. Griffith and F. W. Walbank. On the basis of that work, (Volume III of which won the Runicman Award, 1989), Professor Hammond now provides in one volume a history of the Macedonian State in action from early times to 167 BC. The most important concern is the nature of the Macedonian State and its institutions both in Europe and in the Hellenistic kingdoms in Asia and Egypt, on which much new light has been shed by epigraphic and archaeological discoveries. Those institutions have had a profound influence upon subsequent history. Full references are given to the ancient sources of information and to archaeological, numismatic, and epigraphic articles.
