Anabasis

By Xenophon

Translation by H. G. Dakyns

                  Dedicated To
                  Rev. B. Jowett, M.A.
                  Master of Balliol College
                  Regius Professor of Greek in the University of Oxford
        

                  Xenophon the Athenian was born 431 B.C. He was a
                  pupil of Socrates. He marched with the Spartans,
                  and was exiled from Athens. Sparta gave him land
                  and property in Scillus, where he lived for many
                  years before having to move once more, to settle
                  in Corinth. He died in 354 B.C.

                  The Anabasis is his story of the march to Persia
                  to aid Cyrus, who enlisted Greek help to try and
                  take the throne from Artaxerxes, and the ensuing
                  return of the Greeks, in which Xenophon played a
                  leading role. This occurred between 401 B.C. and
                  March 399 B.C.
