Battle of Cunaxa Illustration

[Sean Manning]

Do you have any plans to get your Achaemenid Persia book back in print? If not, and if you have any sort of bibliography of sources on Persian warfare handy, I’d be interested in it.

No plans at the moment, though it might be a subject to visit again in the future. And I don't think I have a bibliography to hand more up to date than the one in the Montvert Persian book. There's been quite a bit done since then - Nigel Tallis' chapter on warfare in the British Museum Forgotten Empire catalogue would be a good place to start, and the bibliography in the catalogue is pretty impressive.

I have a copy of Forgotten Empires. I was actually sort of unimpressed by that chapter, although it wasn't bad, and the footnotes were basic. Yeah, the bibliography to that book is impressive, but not organized so hard to use (although I did find one article on the Assyrian army). Thanks for your help, though.
