Who said what
“So the first book I want to recommend is called The Persians, The Age of the Great Kings by Lloyd Leon Jones. And this is a really interesting book because most of the stories that have been written or histories that have been written about ancient Persia have been based on Greek sources. But what this author has done is that he's actually gone to the Persian sources.”
