I knew nothing about Alexander the Great, this period of history, or the political geography of the part of the world concerned. I reckon after reading this, I now know all there is to know. It's an astonishingly detailed piece of work which manages to bring AtG to life while maintaining impartiality. It's excellently written, never dry, and he keeps a fine balance between knowledge and informed speculation. Not at all my usual sort of reading;I chose it at random from the e-books available at amazon, and I'm delighted that I did.
