Description

Explore one of the most defining periods of European history with this volume from the Essential Histories series. This book examines the series of wars between the Greeks and the Persian Empire, a conflict that shaped the ancient world. Readers will learn about the famous battles of Marathon, Thermopylae, and Salamis. The text also covers the ill-fated attempt to overthrow the Persian king in 400 BC, an event that helped inspire the later conquests of Alexander the Great. By looking at the lives of great men and women, the societies and cultures that produced them, and the reasons why they came into conflict, this work follows the tradition of Herodotus. Known as the Father of History, Herodotus provided the first accounts of these momentous events, and this book continues that legacy of historical storytelling.
