Bøker av Sir Percy Sykes

A facsimile of a classic history first published in 1915. Sir Percy Sykes was an explorer, consul, soldier and a spy who lived and travelled in Persia over a period of 25 years. This set provides a comprehensive history of Persia from Alexander the Great, through British, French and Russian colonialism, to the early 20th century oil industry.

The History of Persia is a complete chronicle of Persia and the surrounding lands from the dawn of history to the twentieth century, making this standard work still very useful for students and reference libraries.
