Synopsis
Viewed as postscripts to the kingdom's heyday, the last Macedonian kings (Philip V, his son Perseus, and the pretender Andriscus or Philip VI) have often been denounced for self-serving ambitions, flawed policies, and questionable personal qualities. Likewise, they have been condemned for defeats by Rome that saw both the end of the monarchy and the fall of the formidable Macedonian phalanx before the Roman legion. In The Last Kings of Macedonia and the Triumph of Rome, Ian Worthington reassesses these three kings and demonstrates how such denunciations are inaccurate.
