For those who enjoyed the movie’300’ you will love β€œGates of Fire”. It’s the intellectual companion to that movie.

It's true, Paul. That's why my Substack offerings are limited in length to the time it takes for an average dump. OK, crass but true.

The Substack reference was added by myself. Didn't mean to confuse. :(

The book was written in 2016.
