    A new translation of Arrian's history of Alexander the Great, the prime source for our knowledge of Alexander and a compelling work of literature.
    The only edition to include Arrian's companion piece, the Indica, a fascinating account of the voyage of Alexander's fleet under Nearchus from south India to the Persian gulf, with descriptions of the geography, customs, and natural curiosities of India.
    Martin Hammond's engaging translation is fully alive to the literary qualities of Arrian's prose, making this the most readable and attractive modern version.
    Introduction sets Arrian in his historical context and describes the life of Alexander as it is reflected in his work.
    Three invaluable appendices provide a full guide to military systems, structure, and terminology.
    Full notes identify historical references and allusions, and the interplay of historical and literary issues.
    Maps and site plans, and a comprehensive analytical index.
