Alexander the Great

Alexander the Great by Richard Stoneman

Provides an introduction to the history of Alexander and the main themes of his reign. As well as tackling problems of interpretation, the text includes: an examination of the written and other sources, and the problems of working with them; discussion of archaeological and numismatic evidence; an outline of the Macedonian background; insight into Alexander's education and ideas; an exploration of Alexander's claim to divinity; assessment of Alexander's short and long-term achievements; and a study of his influence in antiquity.

Richard Stoneman was formerly Publisher of Classics at Routledge. Now an Honorary Fellow in Classics at the University of Exeter, his many books in the field of classical antiquity include Land of Lost Gods (1987), Palmyra and its Empire (1993), A Traveller's History of Turkey (1993) and Alexander the Great: A Life in Legend (2007), which was named by Choice mazagine as an Outstanding Academic Title for 2008.
