Alexander the Great (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781451517972)

This book is about the life of Alexander III of Macedon (356-323 BC), popularly known as Alexander the Great, who created one of the largest empires in ancient history. As the author says in the preface, "The history of the life of every individual who has, for any reason, attracted extensively the attention of mankind, has been written in a great variety of ways by a multitude of authors, and persons sometimes wonder why we should have so many different accounts of the same thing... It is for this reason, and with this view, that the present series of historical narratives is presented to the public. "
