Book Review - Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield
Read this What a book!The story of The Battle of Thermopylae,Ancient Greece,where 300 Spartans held a pass against an entire Persian army of more than a million men for three days and nights.Told in the words of the only survivor in the form of a diary.An Awsome read!
"Tell the Spartans,stranger passing by,
that here obedient to their laws we lie."
