The author outlines in a popular form the history of Scythians' emergence on the northern Black Sea coast, the course of the Scythian-Persian War, the bloom of Scythia, and peculiar features of the Scythian art of war.

The Scythians are my favorite ancient people, kind of an obsession really. Which is why I bought a book written in a language I can neither speak nor read. For me the photographs and illustration were worth the price of the book. I was I could give a more complete review. Maybe one day I will learn the language and review it again. There is so little written about the scythians I am interested in getting every thing possible.
