So who is it? or can you not say? As for the book I think perhaps I will read it, I do, I confess, have a touch of hero worship- when it comes to Alexander! All the obvious negatives aside, he is a fascinating character. I also find what contemporaries or near contemporaries wrote of him just as fascinating- walking on water is one that springs to mind- the author at present escapes me.
Anyway, good luck with entry into oxford.
I will wait patiently to play the Seleukids
