More text & color illustrations than maps. Physical geography,early Crete-Minoan & Mycenaean history,& large modern maps with ancient sites all included. Nine pages on Homer's Greece,but vast bulk on classical Greece. Poetry, drama,medicine, Greek historians,Alexander all covered,but emphasis on visual-e.g. theaters,fortifications,vases,etc "masks' the barely-mentioned Greek philosophers-Socrates,Plato,Aristotle,etc.This deficiency plus the rather few maps in this 'Cultural Atlas" tell me to give only 4 stars to this otherwise fine,easy,pleasant overview of Ancient Greece.
