Hellenica is a historical account written by Xenophon, a Greek soldier and historian, that details the events of ancient Greece from 411 BC to 362 BC. The book covers a period of political upheaval and military conflict, including the Peloponnesian War, the rise and fall of the Athenian democracy, and the rise of Thebes as a major power in Greece. Xenophon's account is based on his personal experiences as a soldier and his interactions with prominent figures of the time, including Socrates and the Spartan king Agesilaus. The book provides insight into the political and military strategies of the major Greek city-states and the personalities of their leaders. It is considered an important primary source for the study of ancient Greek history and politics.After this the new admiral Hierax arrived from Lacedaemon. The naval force was transferred into his successor's hands, and under the happiest auspices Teleutias set sail for home. As he descended to the seashore to start on his homeward voyage there was not one among his soldiers who had not a warm shake of the hand for their old admiral. Here one presented him with a crown, and there another with a victor's wreath.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
