The story follows Alexander as he conquers the world and becomes a legendary figure in history. The book is a fascinating look at medieval literature and provides insight into the way people thought about history and heroism during that time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in medieval literature or the story of Alexander the Great.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
