This volume contains two major works by Xenophon: "The CyropA]dia, Or Institution of Cyrus" and "The Hellenics, Or Grecian History."

"The CyropA]dia" presents a semi-fictional biography of Cyrus the Great, founder of the Persian Empire, offering insights into leadership, education, and the qualities of an ideal ruler. Xenophon explores Cyrus's upbringing, military strategies, and his ability to inspire loyalty and maintain order within his vast empire. The work blends historical elements with philosophical reflections on governance and human nature.

"The Hellenics" provides a historical account of Greece from 411 to 362 BC, continuing the narrative where Thucydides' "History of the Peloponnesian War" ends. Xenophon details the political and military events of this turbulent period, including the final years of the Peloponnesian War, the rise of Thebes, and the struggles for hegemony among the Greek city-states. This translation by J.S. Watson and H. Dale offers modern readers access to Xenophon's important contributions to historical and biographical literature.
