About This Book

A Greek mercenary force hired to support a Persian claimant is left leaderless deep in hostile territory after his fatal setback; the soldiers undertake a disciplined march out, confronting pitched battles, skirmishes, harsh terrain, supply shortages, political bargaining, and internal rivalry. The narrative alternates action and practical counsel on command, logistics, and formations, highlighting emergent leadership, soldierly cohesion, and the stresses of long overland withdrawal.
