Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book presents an immersive and meticulously researched account of the fall of the ancient Assyrian capital, Nineveh, in 612 BC. Through the lens of historical fiction, the author vividly recreates the grandeur and excess of the Neo-Assyrian Empire and its sudden demise at the hands of a coalition of Medes, Babylonians, and Scythians. The book delves into the political dynamics, military strategies, and cultural complexities that shaped this pivotal event in ancient history. It explores the reign of the infamous Assyrian king Sardanapalus, whose lavish lifestyle and military failures contributed to the empire's collapse. The narrative is enriched by the perspectives of various historical figures, including Arbaces the Mede, and Belesis, a Babylonian priest who played a pivotal role in the rebellion against Assyria. Beyond its historical significance, this book also delves into the human cost of war, the fragility of power, and the enduring legacy of ancient civilizations. By examining the rise and fall of Nineveh, the author provides a profound meditation on the nature of hubris, the importance of leadership, and the cyclical nature of history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Other policies
Please note that we cannot accept cancellation requests once an order has been placed.
All Forgotten Books titles are printed on demand. The moment an order is submitted, it is automatically transmitted to our distributor and then forwarded to the printer, where it enters production. This process begins within minutes and is entirely automated.
A cancellation, however, is a manual, multi-step request that must pass through several systems. By the time such a request reaches the appropriate stage, the book has almost always been printed, packed, or already dispatched, which makes cancellation impossible.
For this reason, we kindly ask that you double-check the title, edition, and your shipping details before placing an order.
If you change your mind after ordering, you are welcome to return the book once it arrives, and a refund will be issued in accordance with AbeBooks’ return policy.

Please also make sure your address is correct before ordering as we will no be able to intervene and make changes before the book is shipped.

We can provide digital samples for all our print books ahead, so don't hesitate to reach out.

Returns

As a small publisher we do not have the facilities to resell returned books, so any returned book will be recycled. If the book is damaged or defective please continue with the return process, and thank you for letting us know so that we can improve our products. If you’re returning for another reason, however, please consider whether you could donate or gift the book instead so that it avoids the waste pile.

Thank you in advance!
