This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1814 edition. Excerpt: ... Arrian's History of Alexander's expedition Arrian TO THE KING. Sir, True history, like a faithful mirror, gives princes, as well as private men, an exact representation of the transactions of past ages; but if partiality infatuates the historian, or prejudice overbalances his judgment, his images appear monstrous and unnatural, and we lose the only benefit we hoped to reap from his labours. The story I now presume to lay at your Majesty's feet, is no less than the fall of the vast Persian empire, and the establishment of the Grecian upon its ruins. No period of time was ever more famous: no general ever pushed his conquests so far in so short a time, nor over-run so many countries with so small a force. None had a more numerous race of writers, to recommend his acts to posterity; but the greatest part of their compositions was either panegyric or satire; for none durst write the truth concerning him while he lived, and few seem to have had an inclination to it after his death. These, and the like considerations, moved our author to undertake this History, wherein he has drawn a more natural and lively portraiture of him than any of the rest, and painted his vices, as well as his virtues, in their proper colours. This, added to his judiciousness and impartiality, has gained him so high an esteem in the world, that the greatest princes, in different ages, have deigned him their protection. Hadrian and Antonine, the emperor Sigismond, Alphonsus king of Aragon, and Cosmus the late duke of Tuscany, are instances of this. They all approved and patronized his works; and I flatter thyself, that if the present I now offer foil of your Majesty's acceptance, it must be on account of the unworthiness of him who offers it

'He was a man like no other man has ever been' So Arrian sums up the career of Alexander the Great of Macedon (356-323 BC), who in twelve years that changed the world led his army in conquest of a vast empire extending from the Danube to the rivers of the Punjab, from Egypt to Uzbekistan, and died in Babylon at the age of 32 with further ambitions unfulfilled. Arrian (c. 86-161 AD), a Greek man of letters who had experience of military command and of the highest political office in both Rome and Athens, set out to write the definitive account of Alexander's life and campaigns, published as the Anabasis and its later companion piece the Indica . His work is now our prime and most detailed extant source for the history of Alexander, and it is a dramatic story, fast-moving like its main subject, and told with great narrative skill. Arrian admired Alexander and was fascinated by him, but was also alive to his faults: he presents a compelling account of an exceptional leader, brilliant, ruthless, passionate, and complex. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Although written over four hundred years after Alexander's death, Arrian's account of the man and his achievements is the most reliable we have. Arrian's own experience as a military commander gave him unique insights into the life of the world's greatest conqueror. He tells of Alexander's violent suppression of the Theban rebellion, his defeat of Persia and campaigns through Egypt and Babylon - establishing new cities and destroying others in his path. While Alexander emerges as a charismatic leader, Arrian succeeds brilliantly in creating an objective portrait of a man of boundless ambition, who was exposed to the temptations of power.
