Alexander's Tomb: The Two-Thousand Year Obsession to Find the Lost ConquerorPaperback – April 24, 2007
Alexander the Great is a towering figure in world history, but despite our long-held fascination with him, his burial site is unknown. The search for Alexander's tomb began soon after his untimely death in 323 B.C. and continues even today.
