Synopsis "Xenophons Anabasis, Books 1-4 (1910)"

Xenophon's Anabasis, Books 1-4 (1910) is a classic work of ancient Greek literature, authored by Xenophon. The book is a historical account of the journey of a group of Greek mercenaries who were hired by Cyrus the Younger to overthrow his brother Artaxerxes II and claim the Persian throne. The story is set in 401 BC and follows the journey of the mercenaries, led by Xenophon, as they travel through Asia Minor and into Persia. The book is divided into four parts, each detailing a different stage of the journey. The first part describes the recruitment of the mercenaries and their initial march into Persia. The second part details the battle of Cunaxa, where Cyrus is killed and the Greek mercenaries are forced to flee. The third part describes the journey of the mercenaries through hostile territory and their encounters with various tribes and armies. The fourth and final part details the successful return of the mercenaries to Greece. The book is a fascinating account of ancient Greek military strategy and tactics, and provides insight into the political and social structures of ancient Persia. It is a must-read for anyone interested in ancient history or military history.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1910 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
