AbstractHistoryArchive Description

At 20, Alexander led an army of 50,000. He defeated armies five times the size of his own, leading the most dangerous charges himself. He conquered most of the known world but left thousands of people dead or enslaved. In Persia he was known as Alexander the Accursed. Was he a brilliant warrior or a ruthless invader?
