Why it endured

Steven Pressfield's novel of the Battle of Thermopylae — the 300 Spartans who held the pass against Xerxes's million-man army. Praised by historians, adopted by military academies, and impossible to put down.

There's a line in um one of Steven Pressfield's books I love. Have you ever read his stuff? [...] You would love uh the War of Art or he has this novel called Gates of Fire that's amazing
