Alexander the Great

by Nick McCarty

A terrific book on Alexander the Great. Alexander inherited the throne of Macedonia at the age of twenty and, in his short life, conquered the then-know world--Alexander's armies reached as far east as the Ganges. This fully-illustrated book separates the history from the myth in Alexander's life and tells the story of one of the greatest, and most feared, leaders in history.

Interesting well illustrated book on Alexander the Great

Fairly basic info on Alexander, but also good for display on a coffee table.
