Highlights
Quality
Even knowing how it ends you wont be disappointed with the telling of this story and the unique spartan culture
On par with the saxon tales of last kingdom fame
This reads with the same style and level of detail but more achievable of a read for a modern reader
Competitiveness
I read it annually to boost my esprit de corps
An excellent book about extraordinary people with values forgotten today by most of the world
