About this listen
By the next morning, they realize that Cyrus is dead and that his allies have melted away in the night, leaving them alone trapped behind enemy lines within a few miles of the Persian capital. And only a few miles distant lies an enormous Persian army with vengeance in mind. Despair deepens when the Greek officer corps is treacherously murdered during peace talks. Alone, leaderless and hopelessly outnumbered, the Greeks nevertheless elect new officers.
Xenophon steps into the pages of history with his magnificent rallying speeches and selfless acts of courage. Follow one of history's most spirited bands of soldiers as they fight and maneuver their way through 1,500 miles of hostile territory seething with adversaries. It is an epic of courage, faith and democratic principle.

Interesting subject
Interesting subject read well by the narrator except for the annoying pronunciation of "officers" as "awwficers:irritating because the word came up frequently being about an army.I must say it's hard to believe that I listened to over seven hours of it.A good sign I think.Better listened to than actually reading it, I feel,especially for this ancient literature.

Great piece of history, but could have used notes
Hard to follow as someone who is not familiar with the original context, would have appreciated notes through the reading
