I speak with Rachel Kousser, a professor of Greek and Roman Art and Architecture at Brooklyn College and the CUNY Graduate Center. She is also the author of the recent book, which received widespread rave reviews, Alexander at the End of the World -- about the last seven years of the life of Alexander the Great.
In addition to this great new book, Rachel recommends:
Plutarch's Biography of Alexander the Great
Stacey Schiff's book Cleopatra
