Plutarch and Arrian have contributed more than any other ancient
authors to our picture of Alexander the Great, but since they wrote
four or more centuries after his death the value of what they said
depends upon the sources of information on which they themselves
drew. In this 1993 book the attempt is made to define and to
evaluate those sources in a detailed study, analysing the
historians' works section by section and comparing them with other
accounts of the same episodes. This volume completes Professor
Hammond's study of the five Alexander-historians begun with Three
Historians of Alexander the Great (Cambridge University Press,
1983) and lays a basis for work in this area.
