Widely referred to as the Father of History, Greek Historian Herodotus lived during the 5th century BC and The Histories is generally accepted as the first work of historical literature in Western Civilization. Departing from the ancient Homeric tradition of treating historical subjects as epically romantic figures, Herodotus instead approached his subjects with a systematic method of investigation. The Histories of Herodotus describe the important wars of the fifth century BC. This work conveys the careful research and deliberate documentation of martial battles between the Greek citystates and the Persian Empire. The reasons for his efforts, as explained by Herodotus, were to preserve the memory and glory of human achievements and deeds, as well as to record why the GrecoPersian Wars took place. Organized in nine books, which are named after the Muses, he unfolds the various battles while making a comparison of the widely differing governments of the antagonists. In undertaking his Histories, Herodotus unfolds a holistic view of the classical world with considerable narrative skill and charisma. This edition is printed on premium acidfree paper, follows the translation of George Rawlinson, includes an introduction by George Swayne, and a preface by H. L. Havell.
