Description
A sweeping look at the big picture development of the Persian Empire (circa 550-330 B.C.E.), this was the first study in English to examine the Persian Empire from the perspective of the Persians, rather than the Greeks. The scope is wide-ranging, including military history and expansion, legal history, religion, social history, and the big personalities of the Empire.
