The first half of the book, "The Record," describes-in Fuller's trademark concise and gripping style-Alexander's character and training, the structure of his army, and the geography of the world that determined the strategy of conquest. "The Analysis" dissects the great battles, from Granicus to Hydaspes, and concludes with two chapters on Alexander's statesmanship. In clear, spirited prose, Fuller illuminates the many facets of Alexander's genius and the enduring legacy of his empire.
