There's a *reason* Alexander is still remembered
This superior historical novel really ought to be read before his latest one, _The Afghan Campaign,_ which enlarges on one of Alexander's later campaigns, and from a different perspective -- but they're really two separate narratives, so no harm done if (like me) you read them in reverse order. The narrative is Alexander himself, outlining the history of his conquest of Asia for the benefit of ...

This is certainly one of my very favorite books of all time. Pressfield's style has even influenced my own works. Anytime an author can make you one a small group of elite heroes--feel their determination; smell their sweat; lock your shield with theirs; thrust your spear into the soft bodies of the enemy; feel the desolation when your battle line is ultimately flanked--then the author has done ...

Thus reads an ancient stone at Thermopylae in northern Greece, the site of one of the world's greatest battles for freedom. Here, in 480 B.C., on a narrow mountain pass above the crystalline Aegean, 300 Spartan knights and their allies faced the massive forces of Xerxes, King of Persia. From the start, there was no question but that the Spartans would perish. ...

GREAT STORY - BEAUTIFULLY TOLD!

That was the battle at Marathon, some years before, when the Greek cities were unprepared and only the city of Athens was able to scrape a small army of conscripts which, brilliantly generaled by Miltiadis, defeated the ...
