Out of a lifetime of study of the ancient Near East, Professor Olmstead has gathered previously unknown material into the story of the life, times, and thought of the Persians, told for the first time from the Persian rather than the traditional Greek point of view.

The fullest and most reliable presentation of the history of the Persian Empire in existence.--M. Rostovtzeff
