Albert Olmsted, Professor of History at the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago, has devoted his life to the study of the ancient Near East and has assembled previously unknown material about the life, times, and thinking of the Persians into a coherent narrative. It was Persia that held the enviable position of dictator of history for two centuries - from the extension of power to Greece by King Cyrus the Great to the burning of Persepolis, the capital of the kingdom, by Alexander the Great. In his book, the author shows how the science, literature, language, and myths of the ancients grew out of the intermingling of many cultures and helped shape future civilization.
