Coles Alexander the Great’s Death: Poisoned at the Height of Power? at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
In 323 BCE, at just thirty-two years old, Alexander the Great died suddenly in Babylon after building one of the largest empires the ancient world had ever seen. His passing left a vacuum of power, ignited fierce rivalries among his generals, and gave rise to a mystery that has endured for more than two millennia.
ALEXANDER THE GREAT'S DEATH examines the ancient accounts of his final illness, the political tensions within his inner circle, and the long-standing theory that he may have been poisoned at the height of his authority. It considers medical explanations alongside the realities of court intrigue and ambition.
This is a careful exploration of a turning point in history. By weighing evidence against legend, the book invites readers to reconsider whether Alexander's death was the result of natural causes, calculated betrayal, or the inevitable cost of absolute power.
