Stories of the East from Herodotus
Stories of the East From Herodotus, composed during the Fifth Century BC, is Herodotus's study of the ancient world, and the relationships and conflicts between the Greek and the non-Greek peoples of the Near East, including the expansive Persian Empire, Egypt, and other lands. His histories recounted not only the human and political stories of human activities, but also included writings on geography, biology, and ethnography.

And because he writes in a style highly susceptible to digression, his book includes all manner of marvelous observations
