Book Description:

Alexander the Great, King of Macedon, lived a life of mythical proportions. He modeled himself after Achilles and slept with a copy of the Iliad annotated by his teacher, Aristotle. Two millennia after his death, he is still remembered as the greatest soldier of all time; moreover, by the time he died at the age of 33, he had introduced Greek civilization to the world.
