  Sicilian historian Diodorus Siculus (ca 100-30 BCE) is our only surviving source for a continuous narrative of Greek history from Xerxes' invasion to the Wars of the Successors following the death of Alexander the Great. This work builds a case for Diodorus' merits as a historian. It offers an estimate of this much-maligned historian.
