Alcibiades and Socrates - Part 2
Alcibiades was a good looking cocky, confident man of great will in athens. He eventually steps into public life before the lead up to the peloponnesian war. During this peace period he does his best to involve sparta's enemies in a proxy war with sparta. But an older politician and old general at athens who hates alcibiades says it is a totally stupid idea. Alcibiades himself ended up in pretty hot water too, because before the expedition was allowed to set sail, something happened in athens which would really impinge on his career from then on in.
