More than a thousand years ago, a Persian poet by the name of Abu´l-Qasim Firdawsi (d. 1020-21) penned this verse. His prophecy has held true, as the year 2010 marks the 1 000th anniversary of the completion of his historical work, Shahnama, The Book of Kings.
Consisting of some 60 000 verses, it is considered one of the longest and most important epic poems ever written.

I attended an event with Dr. Francesca Leoni, Ph.D presenting _The Book of Kings_ last night at SMU. It was both educational and enjoyable.
