Xenophon's Anabasis of Cyrus, Books 3-4 (1877) is a historical account of the Greek mercenary army's journey through Persia under the leadership of Cyrus the Younger, who sought to overthrow his brother, King Artaxerxes II. The book is a translation of Xenophon's original text, which was written in ancient Greek in the 4th century BC. The narrative follows the Greek army as they navigate through hostile territory, face battles and betrayals, and ultimately find themselves stranded deep in enemy territory without supplies or support. Xenophon, who was a soldier and historian, provides a vivid and detailed account of the events, including descriptions of the landscape, the people, and the military tactics employed by both sides. The book is considered a classic of ancient Greek literature and a valuable historical source for understanding the politics and warfare of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
