the story of damon and pythias
In this book, Terhune tells the classic story of brotherly love. The Pythagorean Pythias is condemned to death for plotting against Dionysis I of Syracuse. When Damon bails his own life should Pythias not return, Pythias is given leave to organize his affairs. Despite many efforts to delay him, Pythias returns just in time to take his place for the execution, impressing Dionysis so much with the loyal friendship of the two that both are set free.
