conversations.value: Ancient Greece, in all its gusto, gore, and glory, springs vividly to life in the authors pitch-perfect paean to Aristotle and Alexander the Great. Aristotle narrates the story of his associationas tutor, mentor, and father figurewith a young Alexander on the cusp of discovering his own power and prowess. Although lauded by some and distrusted by others, including, eventually, Alexanders father, Philip of Macedon, Aristotle remains true to his own philosophical methods and ideals, as Alexander becomes his most ambitious personal and professional project. the authors portrait of Alexanders fledgling mental and martial acumen rings true, and her ability to penetrate the mind and convincingly articulate the thoughts and emotions of one of the greatest intellects of all time is absolutely astounding. This window into an ancient world is well worth opening. --Margaret Flanagan
