Anabasis
Xenophon
Leído por LibriVox Volunteers
Xenophon the Athenian was born 431 B.C. He was a pupil of Socrates. He marched with the Spartans, and was exiled from Athens. Sparta gave him land and property in Scillus, where he lived for many years before having to move once more, to settle in Corinth. He died in 354 B.C. "Anabasis" is a Greek word which means "journey from the coast to the center of a country." This is Xenophon's account of his march to Persia with a troop of Greek mercenaries to aid Cyrus, who enlisted Greek help to try and take the throne from his brother Artaxerxes, and the ensuing return of the Greeks, in which Xenophon played a leading role. This occurred between 401 B.C. and March 399 B.C.

Marco Folpmers
Excellent story about courage and moral leadership, very relevant today. Thanks to the great readers, pleasant to listen to

It's best to also read secondary sources for context, but this is a convenient recording for foundational knowledge.

Good story of adventure and triumph over adversity

One of the greatest texts on the genesis of democracy, at a point when it had nearly been wiped out after the Peloponnesian War. Also a stupendous military treatise which inspired Alexander the Great, attempting to live up to the deeds of history’s greatest character, Xenophon, in my humble opinion.
A classic eternally relevant
Sasha Bender
With plenty of lessons about honor, commitment, audacity and man leading men, it's a great book about masculinity, if you hear between the lines.
Greatest Military Book Ever!
