具体描述
Paul Cartledge, one of the world’s foremost scholars of ancient Greece, illuminates the brief but iconic life of Alexander (356-323 BC), king of Macedon, conqueror of the Persian Empire, and founder of a new world order.
Alexander's legacy has had a major impact on military tacticians, scholars, statesmen, adventurers, authors, and filmmakers. Cartledge brilliantly evokes Alexander's remarkable political and military accomplishments, cutting through the myths to show why he was such a great leader. He explores our endless fascination with Alexander and gives us insight into his charismatic leadership, his capacity for brutality, and his sophisticated grasp of international politics. Alexander the Great is an engaging portrait of a fascinating man, and a welcome balance to the myths, legends, and often skewed history that have obscured the real Alexander.

读后感
A very informative and insightful read for those who are interested in history in general and, in particular, the legend of the ancient world.
P39 “凯撒称帝后不久” 没错，这里说的就是盖乌斯·朱利乌斯·凯撒，一个从来不曾称帝 —— 不管这里的’帝‘指的是rex，king，emperor，augustus还是后来的caesar —— 的人。 这算是历史常识了。
