Synopsis

Persia by Samuel G. Benjamin is a comprehensive book that provides a detailed account of the history, culture, and society of Persia, also known as Iran. The book covers the period from ancient times to the modern era, including the Achaemenid Empire, the Safavid dynasty, and the Islamic Republic of Iran. The author explores the geography, economy, and political system of Persia, as well as its religion, literature, and art. The book also delves into the country's social structure, including the role of women and minorities. With its engaging writing style and thorough research, Persia is an essential read for anyone interested in the rich and complex history of Iran.1887. This work differs from other histories of Persia in giving more proportionate attention to the legendary period of her history than is usual with those who have dealt with this subject, as well as to the great career of the House of Sassan, which, in the opinion of the author, has never received full justice from those Christian historians who have undertaken a connected history of Persia.
