Description
This record of one of the most famous marches in history contains an account of the day-to-day life of ordinary men and soldiers and thus demonstrates how Greek theories of government and morality fared in actual practice. Despite his admiration for the great, Xenophon has a rare touch in describing and understanding the outlook of lesser men. His account of his own doings is so far from being self-conscious that he seems to be one of the few Greeks whose ways and manners have been accurately documented.
