Produktbeschreibung
Sixteen stunning discoveries unravel the mystery surrounding the death of Alexander the Great. Who killed Alexander the Great? After more than two thousand years of speculation, the assassin of Alexander is finally identified in a comprehensive investigation in The Murder of Alexander the Great (in two books: The Puranas and The Secret War). In Book 1: The Puranas Alexander's journey is chronicled not only through the siloed lens of Greek records but also through a comparison of ancient Indian texts and artifacts. For the first time ever, the story of the eminent king of Macedonia is retold from a different perspective - one that not only establishes Alexander prominently in ancient Sanskrit texts but also holds the key to resolving the age old mystery of his premature death. Inspired by fresh awareness to an ancient conundrum that has perplexed historians for millennia, The Murder of Alexander the Great is a powerful narrative of blood thirsty wars, mystic locales, and epic encounters - one that leads to SIXTEEN remarkable findings about Alexander the Great thus rewriting the history of this great emperor forever.
