History of Europe

Fourth anniversary of the death of Peter Connolly

Today we mourn the loss, four years ago, of teacher Peter Connolly , British historian and illustrator, whose works have illuminated classical antiquity for generations of readers. For many, the last charge of the Spartans at Thermopylae, the clash of triremes at Salamis or Alexander's phalanx at Hydaspes will be forever as he shaped them. As a small tribute, grateful readers inspired by his vocation for Connnolly, the edition that Desperta Ferro launches in just a few weeks of one of his emblematic publications, The war in Greece and Rome , for the first time in Spanish in a single volume. Thanks Peter!
