Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Archaic Greece (1976) describes the typical polis, and considers in turn each city-state in mainland Greece, the Aegean and the coast of Asia Minor. In detailing its history and local culture, as well as events which had great impact on the period, the book shows how each contributed to the structure of Greek society as a whole.

Archaic Greece (1976) describes the typical polis, and considers in turn each city-state in mainland Greece, the Aegean and the coast of Asia Minor. In detailing its history and local culture, as well as events which had great impact on the period – the reforms of Solon, the expulsion of tyrants – the book shows how each contributed to the structure of Greek society as a whole.
‘There can be nothing but praise for Miss Jeffery’s new book, both as a physical product and as a work of scholarship … will have a long life if one may judge by the striking merits and elegance of its presentation of the currently available evidence.’ The Times Literary Supplement
‘The book strikes a judicious balance between detailed reasoning and a presentation aimed at the relatively untutored reader … the text is lucid and uncluttered with polemic … Miss Jeffery’s book does not strive for novelty nor provocation. Rather, it offers a scrupulous review of Greek political, constitutional and social history in the archaic age, with sound and cautious conclusions. The benefit will be great both for professional historians and for students.’ History
