Description

Two and a half thousand years ago, the Persian King Xerxes launched an invasion of Greece that would leave a lasting impact on history. This pivotal moment in time saw the clash of East and West, with the Greeks resisting against seemingly hopeless odds.

The story is retold here by Stephen P. Kershaw, who draws on recent archaeological discoveries to bring this ancient tale to life. The author explores the epic battles that took place at Marathon, Thermopylae, and Salamis, where the fate of democracy hung in the balance.
