{"product_id":"the-greek-and-persian-wars-philip-de-souza-9781841763583","title":"The Greek and Persian Wars 499-386 BC","description":"This book covers one of the defining periods of European history. The series of wars between the Classical Greeks and the Persian Empire produced the famous battles of Marathon, Thermopylae and Salamis, as well as an ill-fated attempt to overthrow the Persian king in 400 BC, which helped to inspire the conquests of Alexander the Great.To tell the story of these momentous events, of the lives of great men and women, of the societies and cultures that produced them, and to explain how and why they came into conflict was the aim of Herodotus, 'the Father of History', whose account of the wars is our principal source and the first book to be called a 'history'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip de Souza\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841763586\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841763583\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/25\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.61lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.76w x 0.26d","brand":"Philip de Souza","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47419572453631,"sku":"9781841763583","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fc160231-7f6b-4249-87fa-d9e939d0cffa.jpg?v=1761512442","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-greek-and-persian-wars-philip-de-souza-9781841763583","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
