Customer Reviews

Another gem from Waldemar Heckel!

The misleading and inaccurate review posted by "Barrie W. Bracken" has prompted me to write this. The author of the book, Waldemar Heckel, is one of the most respected and knowledgeable authors and historians on Alexander the Great. If you do a Google search on him you will see that and his prolific scholarly additions to the field of Alexander study. This book is a wonderful general book on Alexander and includes insights found no where else. It's the most interesting and enjoyable books on Alexander I have read in a while. And I try to read them all. Very highly recommended!
