Osprey's study of the most epic battles of the GrecoPersian Wars (502449 BC). Thermopylae resonates throughout history as a battle involving extreme courage and sacrifice. It was in this rocky pass in northern Greece that Leonidas, king of the Spartans and commanderinchief of the Greek force, delayed the Persian hordes for three days against overwhelming odds. Finally overcome by treachery, the remaining Spartans refused to retreat in the face of inevitable defeat, being slaughtered by the elite Persian 'Immortals' down to the last man. Nic Fields vividly describes the battle for the narrow gateway to southern Greece as the combined Greek forces held off the army of Xerxes and Leonidas's sacrifice bought time for the retreat and tactical and political regrouping that would save Greece. Full color artwork, detailed maps and dramatic battle scenes complement clear and authoritative text to provide an indepth analysis of one of the most famous acts of sheer courage and defiance in the face of overwhelming odds in history.Related Titles978 1 84176 000 1 CAM 108 Marathon 490 BC978 1 85532 659 0 ELI 66 The Spartan Army978 1 84176 358 3 ESS 36 The Greek and Persian Wars 499386 BC
