Descripción

Hugh Bowden offers readers a compelling glimpse into the life and legacy of one of history's most renowned figures, Alexander the Great. Ascending to the throne of Macedon at just 20, Alexander's remarkable ambition and military prowess would eventually lead him to create one of the largest empires of the ancient world. Bowden unpacks the complexities of an extraordinary life defined by conquests, strategy, and a relentless pursuit of glory.

Through a concise narrative, the author explores not only Alexander's achievements but also the cultural and political landscapes he navigated. The text delves into the implications of his reign on subsequent history and the lasting impact he had on both the East and West. By weaving together historical context and vivid storytelling, Bowden invites readers to reflect on what made Alexander a figure of enduring fascination and why his legacy continues to captivate scholars and enthusiasts alike.
