In fact more of a history of Greece (and its colonies) from the Bronze Age to Hellenistic times, illustrated with very clear maps.  See the description (below) from the dustwrapper flap.

Reprinted in the 1990s, but now out of print, and in view of the book’s size and high production standards, very unlikely to be reprinted in these straitened times.
