Bret Deveraux is a PHD historian and a critic of Pressfield. He picks apart his argument for "universal warrior" and concludes it has an ideology behind it. The ideology is fascism. https://acoup.blog/2021/02/19/collections-the-universal-warr... edit: the earlier version of my post used the word "agenda" instead of "ideology", but that was a bit unfair given Bret himself gives Pressfield benefit of doubt. This article specifically mentions Gates of Fire. |

For anyone that hasn’t read gates of fire I highly recommend it. It is historical fiction and a thrilling journey.
You can make up your own mind about supposed hidden agendas, or …just enjoy a great story.
