A brief and meteoric life (356323 B.C.) Alexander was the greatest of all conquerors in the course of world history. He had a small armyseldom exceeding 40,000 menbut a constellation of bold, revolutionary ideas about the conduct of war and the nature of government. J. F. C. Fuller, one of the foremost military historians of the twentieth-century, was the first to analyze Alexander in terms of his leadership as a general. He has divided his study into two parts. The first, entitled The Record, describes the background of the era, Alexanders character and training, the structure of the Macedonian army, and the geography of the world that determined the strategy of conquest. The second part, The Analysis, takes apart the great battles, from Granicus to Hydaspes, and concludes with two chapters on Alexanders statesmanship. In a style both clear and witty, Fuller imparts the many sides to Alexanders genius and the full extent of his empire, which stretched from India to Egypt.
