Great!!!

Great book, it is short but very descriptive and accurate. Gives good general knowledge background on the Spartan army. What could make it better is to go into detail on the battle array and more tactics.

One of their better efforts

A great combination of good solid text coupled with some great illustrations about a really strange militaristic society from the Ancient Greeks period.

This whole series is great!!! Buy this book.

I love this whole series of books by Osprey on the warrior elite. Great book for kids. Lots of artwork. Easy to understand history and outline of Spartan culture. Great for the novice. May be too light for the serous student of Sparta. Well worth your money. Wyatt Kaldenberg

Excellent Evaluation of the "Evil Empire"

Enjoyed this book tremendously; Not only are the color plates excellent, but the photos of archaeological evidence are also great. Especially liked the plate of the warriors of Lycurcus' era (not many artists venture to illustrate this poorly documented period).
