In The Polity of the Athenians and the Lacedaemonians, Xenophon examines how two famous Greek societies organize public life, leadership, and the duties of citizens.

The result is a compact, energetic work of classical history and political thought that rewards both first time listeners and seasoned students of the ancient world.
