5.Alexander the GreatAlexander the Great
from Vintage
Price: $8.38

Customer Review:
I should state from the outset that this book is probably not the best choice for someone who has not previously studied the life of Alexander the Great (or watched one of the better documentaries available). The book is a topic based biography and would be a bit difficult to fully appreciate... more info

6.Alexander the Great: The Brief Life and Towering Exploits of History s Greatest Conqueror--As Told By His Original BiographersAlexander the Great: The Brief Life and Towering Exploits of History's Greatest Conqueror--As Told By His Original Biographers
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $4.82

Customer Review:
The idea is to cut-and-paste segments from classical biographers into a relatively cohesive narrative of Alexander's life and exploits. Over all, the project comes off fairly well. It reads quickly, hitting all the expected the highlights. A nice sampling of the "original" sources; a short book that... more info

8.Alexander the Great and the Logistics of the Macedonian ArmyAlexander the Great and the Logistics of the Macedonian Army
from University of California Press
Price: $12.87

Customer Review:
Overall, this book was what I expected. I had just finished reading another book on Alexander, so I was loosely familiar with the battles and campaigns. This book assumes that basic knowledge as it delves directly into the logistics of all of Alexander's major campaigns. The outcomes of the battles... more info

from Pantheon
Price: $7.28

Customer Review:
Where is Alexander when we need him...now!
After reading the big-long bio of Howard Hughes I'm thinking he may have been a reincarnation of Alexander.
Too bad the real story of this phenomenal person is not taught in schools, youth of today would be much inspired by the philosophy and... more info

10.The Generalship Of Alexander The GreatThe Generalship Of Alexander The Great
from Da Capo Press
Price: $5.19

Customer Review:
Do we know much about Alexander the general? The accounts of his campaigns contain gross exaggerations of the number of battles he faced and are full of what are probably heroic glosses. Hans Delbruck(History of the Art of War) a famous German historian made it his business to try to calculate... more info
