Ahh ancient Greece, it has been *entirely* too long. Today we'll take a look at the foundational work of my entire career path — Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian war, a book that almost single-handedly set the standard for how we engage in historical inquiry. Also it has the added benefit of being about Ancient Greece so win-win! SOURCES & Further Reading: "History of the Peloponnesian War" by Thucydides, "Histories" by Herodotus, "Hellenica" by Xenophon, and the 4 straight years I spent studying this in university — Boy do I love doing a video about a topic I'm specifically trained in.
