Features: Alexander was a famous student of the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle and the highest military commander in Greece. This man, known as the Great, from Macedon—what kind of figure was Alexander? He claimed to be the son of the pharaoh and the gods, conquered most of Europe, Asia, and Africa, yet ultimately died in a foreign land—why? What was the cause of his death? This book includes three works: "Conquering the World—Alexander the Great," "Heaven and Hell—Friedrich II," and "Lucrezia Borgia and the Vatican Borgias."
