Book description
As a life-long student of history, anything that covers the subject will grab my attention. As a man with attention deficit disorder, the litmus test of quality for the historical work is established when once I am grabbed, will I allow it to take hold for more than a nano-second? This wonderful book has me firmly in its grip.Written for middle school age folks and younger adults, it is an amazing way of telling the story of Alexander the Great and his contributions to the world in shaping its history. Effects that are still felt and seen today. Ironically, with the Arab Spring that is happening, this book is very timely and ties in the consequences of the past with present day struggles and hopes.I will admit that I was skeptical at first when I saw that the story line was told from the perspective of Alexanders trusted horse. At face value, this can be a set up for disaster in getting the seriousness of the story and theme across to the intended audience. Youth are a tough shell to crack at times, especially if there is learning (gasp!!) involved. Mr. Taylor not only has a firm grip on the reins, he has an amazing gift for telling it straight from the horses mouth. This book surpassed all of my expectations, and I am confident that it will be a success with all of the students that read it. Learning doesnt have to be stuffy. This book makes it entertaining, real, accessible, and a true joy.Mr. Taylor pulls the reader right into the story and takes you along on the adventure. He has a way of making the reader care and feel true emotion for the characters. I will admit that I was a wee bit teary eyed during the end of the book. Very beautiful story telling indeed!!Taylor knows his subject very well and is an impassioned storyteller. Though his target audience is youth, I know adults will enjoy this work and will find not only entertainment in reading it, but will come away with a better appreciation for world history as well. I do not stay up late into the night reading especially when I have early morning appointments, but I did with this fine book.I dare say that it will change and improve your appreciation for Alexander the Great and his amazing contributions to the world. Once you link the past with the present and become energized for what the future can be, your heart will be warmed.Please join his discussion of the book on Goodreads to answer any questions that you may have and to expand your appreciation for the book and the subject.
