Written by Robert Erskine.
From the deserted courtyards of Persepolis, the ritual city of Darius the Great, Robert Erskine tells the story of the Achaemenid dynasty.
More than 2,000 years ago it flowered suddenly from the high dusty table-land of south-western Persia, ruled with the power of its gold from north India to the Nile and the Black Sea to the Persian Gulf, and met a sudden mysterious death at the hands of Alexander the Great.
