Book De*ion

In 336 b.c. Philip of

Macedonia was assassinated and his twenty-year-old son, Alexander,

inherited his kingdom. Immediately quelling rebellion, Alexander

extended his father's empire throughout the Middle East and into

parts of Asia, fulfilling the soothsayer Aristander's prediction

that the new king "should perform acts so important and glorious as

would make the poets and musicians of future ages labour and sweat

to describe and celebrate him."

The Life of Alexander the Great is one of the first surviving

attempts to memorialize the achievements of this legendary king,

remembered today as the greatest military genius of all time. This

exclusive Modern Library edition, excerpted from Plutarch's Lives,

is a tale of honor, power, scandal, and bravery written by the most

eminent biographer of the ancient world.

Immediately quelling rebellion, Alexander extended his father’s empire through-out the Middle East and into parts of Asia, fulfilling the soothsayer Aristander’s prediction that the new king “should perform acts so important and glorious as would make the poets and musicians of future ages labour and sweat to describe and celebrate him.”

The Life of Alexander the Great is one of the first surviving attempts to memorialize the achievements of this legendary king, remembered today as the greatest military genius of all time. This exclusive Modern Library edition, excerpted from Plutarch’s Lives , is a riveting tale of honor, power, scandal, and bravery written by the most eminent biographer of the ancient world.
