The Antagonists

The Antagonists

" The Antagonists " is an historical novel by Ernest K. Gann about the siege of Masada. The novel explores the themes of leadership and patriotism by comparing and contrasting the two protagonists/antagonists of the story. Little survives from history, so the account is heavily fictionalized. It was adapted into a television miniseries, "Masada".
