The Persians offers a comprehensive history of the Persian Empire, the first superpower in history. It examines the reign of the Great Kings, including Cyrus the Great, Darius, and Xerxes, who ruled over a vast and diverse territory from Libya to Pakistan. The book details life in the palace-city of Persepolis and highlights the complex relationships within the Achaemenid dynasty, marked by power struggles among family members and court intrigues. It also challenges traditional narratives shaped by Greek historians, providing a fresh perspective on this influential empire.
