Agesilaos II ...

Now there is a subject in itself. If ever the rise and fall of a city could be laid at one man's feet - it is arguably the lame Spartan King.

Best to wade (as I have) through Agesilaos and the Crisis of Sparta by Paul Cartledge. It is a fascinating, if somewhat heavy (and occasionally plodding) read.

His unremitting hatred of Thebes was a serious foible and led to disaster ...
