Set against the twenty-seven-year war between Athens and Sparta, Cimon the Athenian is the story of Cimon who faces the dual challenges of a warrior in a deadly conflict and a citizen of ancient Athens struggling to maintain its democracy. Along the way, he encounters philosophers, war leaders, and dramatists that include Socrates, Alcibiades, and Euripides. Cimon's world includes slaves, women, and family. His city of Athens is among the most famous in antiquity. Combining power and art, Athens was the head of an empire that encompassed the Aegean Sea and rivalled Persia and Sparta. Cimon's larger world embraced Sparta, Thebes, Corinth, Persia, and Sicily.
