Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book describes the arduous journey of the Greek Ten Thousand, a group of mercenaries who fought alongside Cyrus the Younger in his failed attempt to claim the throne of Persia from his older brother, Artaxerxes II, in 401 BCE. The narrative, attributed to the Greek historian Xenophon, chronicles the Greeks' epic retreat after the death of Cyrus at the Battle of Cunaxa.

The book delves into the complexities of leadership, the bonds of camaraderie, and the importance of discipline and perseverance in the face of overwhelming odds. Through vivid descriptions of battles, diplomatic negotiations, and encounters with foreign cultures, this book offers a rich tapestry of ancient history.
