Some say he was the greatest warrior in history, building an empire that extended from Europe to Africa and on to India and Central Asia. In a stirring narrative, famed historian John Gunther tells the story of Alexander the Great who, at only age 21, became King of Macedonia and set off on a 12-year journey to conquer the known world and extend the boundaries of Greek civilization. Gunther takes us from Alexander�s boyhood to his victory over the Persian Empire, and, in vivid detail, describes Alexander�s battles, as well as the palace intrigues that surrounded him.
