The book details the life and experiences of Xenophon, an Athenian soldier and philosopher who admired Socrates. It focuses on his participation in the 401 BC expedition against Persia led by Cyrus the Younger and chronicles the journey home, known as Anabasis. Following his military involvement against Athens, which led to his exile, Xenophon settled in Scillus, where he wrote this significant historical account. His works provide insight into Greek history, warfare, and philosophy, highlighting his unique perspective as both a soldier and a thinker.
