“The first full-scale study in over 50 years of the Alexander Romance and its legacy in English. . . . Particularly interesting is the author’s discussion of the rich medieval Persian Alexander literature—both Zoroastrian and Islamic—and its influence. This fascinating book belongs in every university and college library.”—Choice
