The story of Alexander the Great is one of the most amazing and
enthralling that history has to offer. The reader will journey to a
world of heroism, of great courage and amazing conquest as we follow
Alexander from a childhood rolling in the dust with his toy army to the
greatest conqueror the ancient world ever knew.

Lives in Action is a series of
narrative biographies that recount the lives of some of the key figures
in history. Page-turning, thrilling plots that read like fiction will
keep the most reluctant reader hooked.
