Explore the legend of Alexander the Great through fascinating text and hundreds of full-color photographs of artifacts, paintings, statues, archaeological sites, and more. A man plans and nearly achieves his superhuman dream—the conquest of the world—then dies at thirty-three, leaving an enduring legacy of myth and legend that continues to fascinate historians, novelists, filmmakers, and general readers. Following the arc of Alexander the Great’s vision, from his Kingdom of Macedonia through his march to the ends of the known world, this book gorgeously presents a detailed account of Alexander the Great’s short but astonishing life, handsomely covered with explanatory drawings of his most important battles.
