Michael Wood IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT First Edition Signed

First edition first print hardback of IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT (A Journey from Greece to Asia) by Michael Wood and published by BBC Books in 1997. Signed to a previous owner by Wood on the half title page.

The book is in near fine condition (purple cloth boards with gilt lettering to spine) with no significant wear. The book is in a near fine unclipped dust jacket which has light creasing to edges. Internally the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or other inscriptions.

Between 334 and 324 B.C. the Macedonian army, led by Alexander the Great, marched relentlessly across Asia. An event of bravery and cruelty, endurance and greed, Alexander's expedition was a turning point in human history. His conquest opened up contacts between Europe and Asia, unleashing astonishing historical energies that continue to affect the world today. This extraordinary book recreates Alexander's 22,000 mile, ten-year expedition from Greece to India, following as much as possible the actual route of his journey in search of the truth behind the Alexander legend.
