About Alexander the Great

<p>The thrilling story of one of the most remarkable figures in history. Recounts how Alexander ascended the Macedonian throne at the age of 20, overthrew his rival claimants, and then began preparations for the expedition against Persia. After defeating Darius, he proceeded to Egypt where he founded Alexandria, then turned back into Asia, where he subdued the most powerful nations, and in a span of eleven years conquered almost all of the known world. But, as his fortunes rose, his character deteriorated, and he died unexpectedly at the age of 33. Suitable for ages 12 and up.</p> <p>**</p>Review <p>Abbott's account of Alexander's life reads like a Greek tragedy. We are reminded of Jesus admonition, For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? (Mt. 16:26a). Alexander gained the world, but at what cost? Abbott's book is an easy but fascinating read, providing insights and details into the life of one of history's most prominent, yet puzzling, figures. For those who enjoy history and have a love of reading, this book is a delightful treasure. --Patch Blakey, executive director, Association of Classical &amp; Christian Schools </p> About the Author <p>Jacob Abbott (1803-1879) was an American author, pastor, and teacher. He founded two high schools and wrote over one hundred books, many of which were particularly for children and young adults, including <em>Rollo at Play, The Young Christian,</em> and <em>Cousin Lucy on the Sea-shore.</em></p>
