About the Book
Xenophon wrote several books most of which survived. The narrative is about military advance, or journey. And what a journey this was for 10,000 Greek mercenaries, through hostile territory, ultimately retreating back to Greece. Xenophon’s informal and realistic style of writing makes this exciting real-life adventure story intensely interesting and captivating. Highly Recommended!
