In Sparta’s Third Attic War, Paul Rahe examines the armed conflict that followed, attending to the impact of the internal struggles at Athens, Sparta, and the court of the Great King on its outcome. This is a story of grit, determination, and brilliance on both sides. It examines the ambivalence of the Spartans, it relates the folly that brought the Athenians down, and it traces their ultimate defeat to defects in the policy and vision of Pericles.

But in the ruins of the last war lies the seeds for the next great conflict. Ukrainians are being made to pay with their lives for the arrogance (and ignorance) of Western leaders in the post-Cold War era. Thanks to their hubris, the world now teeters on the brink of a potential nuclear world war over the status of Ukraine.

Governmental abuse by a class of so-called experts has grown unchecked because of Progressives’ quiet regime change over the last century and their replacing our constitutional republic with that administrative state.
