Who was this remarkable man called Alexander? What drove him to daring feats of organization and discipline that would be impossible to believe were they not documented by solid archaeological and historical evidence? After centuries of enshrouding myth and conflicting legends -- of his death-defying prowess during battle, of his rumored participation in wild drinking parties -- what do we now know for certain about Alexander's life?

I bought this book as a companion piece to the same author's earlier--and more academically written--"Alexander the Great." I intend to read it in somewhat parallel, and make use of the many fine photo illustrations. It seemed a better option to Michael Woods' visual tracing of Alexander's path.

And now I am anxious to get out and reread Freya Stark's "Alexander's Path."

One of the best texts available that features excellent illustrations. Robin Lane Fox is a respected historian so the popularly written volume is reliable, up-to-date, and helpful.

1855 The Search for Alexander, by Robin Lane Fox (read 9 June 1984) This is a kind of an archeologist's life of Alexander the Great. In August of 1974, while on a trip to Yellowstone National Park, I read a biography of Alexander the Great, and I remembered some of that book as I read this book. I never really got absorbed in this book. ( )

I was never quite sure to what kind of audience this book was intended. There are lots of gorgeous photographs of excavations in Macedonia. ( )
