Dr. Kaveh Farrokh, author of the new "
Shadows in the Desert: Ancient Persia at War," will be on
Mark Dankof's America on the
Republic Broadcasting Network tomorrow (Wednesday, May 30th). It is the definitive work in its field, and is replete with wonderful maps and pictures. Dr. Farrokh's appearance covers the last two hours of the broadcast, which will be archived at the Republic Broadcasting Network site for later listeners.
For Biblical students, "
Shadows in the Desert" has a tremendous section on the Persia of the 6th century B. C. and the
ancient Achaemenid Empire period so important to the Old Testament, including Isaiah, Daniel, Esther, Ezra, and Nehemiah. Farrokh's research subsequently covers the
Parthian and Sassanian Empires, the
Islamic conquest of Iran and its aftermath.
