Agnes Savill - Alexander the Great and His Time

"To be mystical and intensely practical, to dream greatly and to do
greatly, is not," says Agnes Savill, "given to many men; it is this
combination which gives Alexander his place apart in history. Aristotle
had taught him that man's highest good lay in right activity of mind
and body both. [Alexander]... gives a strangely vivid impression of
one whose body was his servant."
He was trained by Aristotle in every branch of human learning, conquered
much of Asia, and was one of the greatest leaders in the history of
the world. He was unquestionably one of the most brilliant and commanding
generals of all time. He greatly influenced the spread of Hellenism
and is responsible for profound changes in the course of world development.
Agnes Savill gives us a vivid account of the life, personality, failures
and accomplishments of one of history's largest characters.
