Hello, I am currently reading a book on Antigonos and was curious what other books existed about the other Diodochi leaders at that time? I'm finding it hard to locate any on Kassandros and Lysmachias.

James Romm - Ghost on the Throne
Landucci - Alexander's legacy
Bevan - The House of Seleucus
Billows - Antigonos the One-Eyed
Green - Alexander to Actium

The final chapters about Hammond's History of Greece and The Macedonian State talk about the hellenistic period, too

Oh as a matter of fact I have one in my possession though it is in Greek. The author is Johann Gustav Droysen and I believe the title is Macedonian Hellenism - History of Alexander the Great's Diadochi, as least that is how I translate the title in Greek.

If you are talking primary sources, most of them are destroyed. Most famously Ptolemy's history of Alexander was destroyed in one of the burnings of the Library of Alexandria. However, multiple sources such as the Anabasis of Alexander are based off of these sources. They quote and reference them quite often, so the best thing we have is something like this in terms of primary sources.

"Antigonos the One-Eyed and the Creation of the Hellenistic State" by Richard A. Billows is very good and focused.
Will echo Robin Waterfield's "Dividing the Spoils" as mentioned above.

I can also recommend the Hellenistic Age Podcast which is super comprehensive and is set to cover the entire Hellenistic era, but they don't appear to have finished yet. It's on Youtube and probably elsewhere too.

My reading list is enormous. Currently going through In the Name of Rome.

Just completed Caesar and The Complete Roman Army.

On the way I have Pax Romana and Augustus.

All by Goldsworthy. Will get SPQR by Mary Beard soon.
