De Rebus Gestis Alexandri Magni Historia (The History of Alexander the Great) by Quintus Curtius Rufus, is a biography of Alexander the Great. It is thought that the work was written in the 1st century AD, but little is known about the author. The book survives incomplete: there are lacunae in Books III, IV, V, VI, and X. Despite these omissions, it is a significant and often thrilling account of Alexander's conquests and character. This historical account provides insights into Alexander's military strategies, his interactions with various cultures, and the political landscape of the ancient world. Quintus Curtius Rufus presents a compelling narrative that has captivated readers for centuries, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in classical history and the life of one of history's most remarkable figures.
