Title: How an undemoratic society fought to save freedom.
Product review: The Spartan ideals of a society geared solely to produce warriors would seem to be at odds with modern views of freedom. Yet this society produced kings who fought beside their men and serfs who sacrificed themselves willingly on the battlefield of Thermopolaye. The battle scenes are grisly and fascinating. The author gives the Persians and their allies their due. They are brave men but they are slaves. Even as the Persians finish off the Spartans in this titanic battle you know they will lose later when they face the full might of the Spartan fighters.
