This is considerably the best non-fiction book I had to listen to in many years. Captivating History, does an excellent job of detailing the events, personalities, and consequences of the wars without losing the human element or influence on the world.

Great history on the Ancient Greeks

The book is terrific and well worth every penny I spent on it. Just the account of Thermopylae had me on the side of my seat and filled with excitement and pride in what these brave Spartans and their allies did for Greece and western civilization.

I greatly love the Greco-Persian Wars.
