' "In 325 BCE, Alexander and his conquering army prepared to return home, after overcoming everything in their path: armies, terrain, climate, all invariably hostile. Some traveled by sea, some along the coastal desert, to consolidate their victory and contemplate the magnitude of their accomplishments. Little did they know that within two years, their beloved king would be dead and their labors seemingly wasted, left only with the scars of combat and slowly fading memories of that glorious adventure in the east." Tracing the rise and eventual fall of one of the most successful military commanders in history, Waldemar Heckel engagingly and with great detail shows us how Alexander earned his appellation, The Great.'.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Waldemar Heckel provides a revisionist overview of the conquests of Alexander the Great.
