Here is one of the greatest true adventures of all time - Xenophon's first-hand account of an incredible military mission - retold in W. H. D. Rouse's brilliantly readable translation. A classic of courage and leadership, The March Up Country is the immortal story of how 10,000 Greek soldiers, trapped deep in the Persian Empire, fought their way out across 1,500 miles of trackless plains, tortuous rivers and perilous mountains - harassed by overwhelming enemy forces every foot of the way.
