{"product_id":"9781634615273","title":"The History of Agathocles","description":"\u003cp\u003eHistorical authority is of two kinds, literary and material. For the life of Agathocles the chief extant writers are Diodorus Siculus, Justin, and Polyaenus; and it will make easier a true understanding of the history about to be narrated, if a short account of these writers be presented, with such facts as can be discovered as to the original sources from which they drew.\u003cbr\u003eConsidering the importance of Agathocles' reign, there is a remarkable dearth of material remains. No building, graven stone, or bust is left to commemorate him. Of his coins indeed a long and valuable series has come down. These have been ably discussed by expert writers, and the subject forms no part of the plan of the present work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNisyros Publishers has a proud history of publishing high quality and rare titles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nisyros Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47139679174896,"sku":"9781634615273","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781634615273_p0.jpg?v=1763681073","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781634615273","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
