About the book

The Persian Expedition is Xenophon's account of the famous expedition of the Ten Thousand, a force of Greek mercenaries who became stranded deep within the Persian Empire. After their leaders were killed, the Greeks were forced to march thousands of miles through hostile territory in search of safety. Xenophon's narrative combines military history, adventure and firsthand observation in one of the great surviving works of classical prose.
