Description:
Michael Wood journeys through Syria and Iraq to explore the story of Alexander the Great's pivotal battle against the Persian Empire in 331 BCE. Ancient accounts place the battle near Irbil in northern Iraq, but its precise location has remained a mystery. Drawing on recent discoveries in the UK – a cuneiform tablet in the British Museum and a papyrus from Egypt – Wood illuminates the battle's unfolding events. He then retraces Alexander's campaign, traveling through Damascus and Aleppo in Syria and into Northern Iraq with British and American military personnel to piece together the campaign's history.
