He then startles them by proposing to finance a trip for the three of them through time back to the fifth century BC. Their initial reaction is outright refusal. Ken West is a scholar and a university professor of Latin and Ancient Greek. He is also an insecure lovelorn man who desperately wants a woman’s love but hasn’t found one to share his life.

David Braun is a highly successful businessman with the Midas touch. Married twice, he loses both wives to tragic deaths. The loss of two women leaves him a shattered man, fearful of making another marital commitment. After much soul searching and discussions among themselves the three men agree to start preparations for the trip. Then a mysterious occurrence decides the issue and they journey to fifth century BC Greece where they live out the rest of their lives.
Download or read book Sword of Persia written by Michael Axworthy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nader Shah, ruler of Persia from 1736 to 1747, embodied ruthless ambition, energy, military brilliance, cynicism and cruelty. His reign was filled with bloodshed, betrayal and horror. Yet, Nader Shah is central to Iran's early modern history. From a shepherd boy, he rose to liberate his country from foreign occupation, and make himself Shah. He took eighteenth century Iran in a trajectory from political collapse and partition to become the dominant power in the region, briefly opening the prospect of a modernising state that could have resisted colonial intervention in Asia. He recovered all the territory lost by his predecessors, including Herat and Kandahar, and went on to conquer Moghul Delhi, plundering the enormous treasures of India. Nader commanded the most powerful military force in Asia, if not the world. He repeatedly defeated the armies of Ottoman Turkey, the preeminent State of Islam, overran most of what is now Iraq and threatened to take Baghdad on several occasions. But from the zenith of his success he declined into illness, insane avarice and horrific savagery, committing terrible atrocities against the Persian people, his friends, and even his family, until he finally died as violently as he had lived. The "Sword of Persia" recreates the story of a remarkable, ruthless man, capable of both charm and brutality. It is a rich narrative, full of dramatic incident, including much new research into original Iranian and other material, which will prove indispensable to historians and students. The book includes many contemporary illustrations, and maps.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1. The great events in history are those where, upon special occasions, a man or a people have made a stand against tyranny, and have preserved or advanced freedom for the people. Sometimes tyranny has taken the form of the oppression of the many by the few in the same nation, and sometimes it has been the oppression of a weak nation by a stronger one. The successful revolt against tyranny, the terrible conflict resulting in the emancipation of a people, has always been the favorite theme of the historian, marking as it does a step in the progress of mankind from a savage to a civilized state.
