Description
Arrian's History Of The Expedition Of Alexander The Great, And Conquest Of Persia is a historical account of Alexander the Great's military campaigns in Asia and his conquest of Persia. The book was originally written by Arrian, a Greek historian and philosopher, in the 2nd century AD and was translated into English by John Rooke in 1812. The book is divided into seven books, each covering a different stage of Alexander's campaign. It begins with Alexander's accession to the throne of Macedon and his decision to invade Persia. The subsequent books cover his battles with the Persian Empire, including the famous battles of Issus and Gaugamela. Arrian's account is based on a variety of sources, including eyewitness accounts and earlier historians such as Callisthenes and Ptolemy. He provides a detailed description of the tactics and strategies used by Alexander and his army, as well as the geography and culture of the regions they conquered. The book also includes a biography of Alexander and his companions, as well as a discussion of his legacy and impact on history. Overall, Arrian's History Of The Expedition Of Alexander The Great, And Conquest Of Persia is a comprehensive and detailed account of one of the most significant military campaigns in history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
