His empire was vast, stretching across the ancient world from Greece and Egypt to India. In the wake of his death, his generals - the Diadochi- once tenuously united, turned on one another, each in pursuit of what he believed was his rightful role as ruler.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this narrative history, Edward M. Anson explores the period of time known as the Age of the Successors - the approximately forty years following the death of Alexander the Great. It is a story of ambition, power, and war, but at its core it is a story of transition - of how one man's empire ultimately became the Hellenistic world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEDWARD M.
