Cyrus the Great, a remarkable general, established the Persian Empire, considered the greatest of its era. He holds the distinction of being the king who liberated the Jews from their exile in Babylon and permitted their return to Jerusalem, as recorded in the Bible. Cyrus is revered as the only non-Jew to be anointed by God. His influence extends to the US Bill of Rights, and Christian evangelicals and the Prime Minister of Israel have drawn favorable comparisons between him and US President Donald Trump.
In this groundbreaking modern biography, renowned historical biographer and author of 43 books, Stephen Dando-Collins, delves into the intricate life of Cyrus. The book explores Cyrus's tumultuous youth, his ascent to power through rebellion, his daring military campaigns that brought down the Median, Lydian, and Babylonian empires, and his remarkably benevolent reign. Dando-Collins employs his extensive research and engaging narrative style to dispel myths and folklore, presenting a captivating account of a truly fascinating life.
Through this comprehensive biography, readers gain a deeper understanding of Cyrus's remarkable achievements and his profound impact on history.
