Book
Alexander at the end of the world : the forgotten final years of Alexander the Great / Rachel Kousser.
By 330 B.C.E., Alexander the Great had reached the pinnacle of success. Or so it seemed. Alexander was determined to continue heading east to Afghanistan in search of his ultimate goal: to reach the end of the world. Renowned professor Rachel Kousser vividly brings to life Alexander's labyrinthine, treacherous final years, weaving together a brilliant series of epic battles, stunning landscapes, and nearly insurmountable obstacles. Kousser's narrative is a tale of daring and adventure, an inspiring portrait of grit and ambition, and a powerful meditation on the ability to learn from failure.
