Alexander is considered by far as the greatest military genius of all time. His empire stretched from the Adriatic Sea in the west to what is Pakistan in the east, and from Egypt in Africa in the south to modern Uzbekistan in Central Asia in the north. He led his army across mountains, deserts, rivers and seas and won victory after victory against impossible odds-all in a little more than ten years. His life is an amazing tale of honour, power, scandal and bravery.
