Reviews"Fast-paced and dramatic, much like Alexander himself, this is a splendid introduction into one of the most dramatic true stories of history."Adrian Goldsworthy, author ofAntony and Cleopatra, "Lean, learned, and marked by good judgment on every page, Alexander the Great is also a roaring good yarn. Philip Freeman has the eye of someone who has walked in Alexander's footsteps, and he writes with grace and wisdom." -Barry Strauss, author of The Spartacus War and professor of history, Cornell University, "Fast-paced and dramatic, much like Alexander himself, this is a splendid introduction into one of the most dramatic true stories of history." Adrian Goldsworthy, author of Antony and Cleopatra, "Freeman tells us about Alexander's life like a novel-a remarkably interesting novel, to boot." -Sarah Hann, The Saturday Evening Post, "A well-written, chronological narrative that allows Alexander's remarkable career and achievements to speak for themselves. . . . Readers will appreciate this fine account of a man truly deserving of the title 'Great.'" - Booklist, "Mr. Freeman's ambition, he tells us in his introduction, was 'to write a biography of Alexander that is first and foremost a story.' It is one he splendidly fulfills." -Tom Holland, The Wall Street Journal
