Faces of Power: Alexander's Image and Hellenistic Politics Volume 11 Hardcover - 1994
by Andrew Stewart
First line
Ancient texts about Alexander are both few and many.
From the rear cover
There is no more evocative Greek portrait type than that of Alexander the Great. By exploring its potency and development in antiquity . . . Stewart has made an impressive demonstration of the value of this broader approach to a traditional art-historical subject.--Sir John Boardman, Ashmolean Museum

Light edgewear and faint creasing to DJ. ; Hellenistic Culture and Society; 545 pages; Alexander the Great changed the face of the ancient world.
