Erato is the sixth book of Herodotus’ Histories, originally published in 1884. The book is a historical account of the Persian Wars, which took place between 490 and 479 BCE. Herodotus provides a detailed description of the events leading up to the wars, including the rise of the Persian Empire and the conflicts between the Greeks and Persians. The book is divided into nine chapters, each covering a different aspect of the wars. Chapter one describes the Persian invasion of Greece, while chapter two covers the Battle of Marathon. Chapter three focuses on the preparations for the second Persian invasion, and chapter four describes the Battle of Thermopylae. Chapters five and six cover the naval battles of Artemisium and Salamis, respectively. Chapter seven describes the Persian invasion of Attica, and chapter eight covers the Battle of Plataea. The final chapter provides a summary of the events of the Persian Wars and their impact on Greek history. Erato is a valuable resource for historians and scholars interested in ancient Greek history and the Persian Wars. Herodotus’ detailed and engaging writing style makes the book accessible to a wider audience, while his thorough research and firsthand accounts provide a unique perspective on these historic events.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
