The Twin Soul of Alexander : A Novel of Alexander the Great (1542360617)



While many books, fiction and nonfiction alike, chronicle Alexander the Great's ascension to power and conquest of the ancient world, few go back to Alexander's early adulthood. In this vividly written and thoroughly researched novel, Lawrence Scheier explores Alexander's early years through the eyes of the renowned leader's best friend and lover, Hephaestion. Scheier's fictional biography is full of political intrigue, family treachery, and enticing romance.

Do not waste the opportunity! The words of Hephaestion's father ring in his ears when he first approaches the young Alexander in the Macedonian capital of Pella. Hephaestion hopes to use his father's relationship with King Philip to be appointed as one of Alexander's royal companions.

Hephaestion quickly becomes entangled in the complex politics of the royal family. Queen Olympias, Alexander's mother, gives him the position in exchange for his loyalty to Alexander and asks him seduce her son. Hephaestion realizes that he is being used a pawn in the twisted game between the king and queen.

Hephaestion must make difficult choices to stop Alexander from being sacrificed on the altar of his parents' dysfunction. At the same time, Hephaestion must confront his own feelings for the prince and the dangerous consequences of Alexander's ambition.

Churchill's Cold War : The Politics of Personal Diplomacy (0300094388)

Churchill's techniques of government were distinctly unconventional. Energetic, self-confident, and persuasive, he preferred to act outside official civil service channels when the stakes were high. When forming foreign policy, his preferred modus operandi was summit diplomacy-the cultivation of personal contacts to achieve national objectives. At its best his direct intervention could be heroically successful, resulting, for example, in the entry of the United States into the Second World War. At its worst it failed utterly. Either way this was international politics at a level of high drama and high risk. This book explores Churchill's predilection for direct diplomatic action from his first tentative involvement in 1908 until his retirement as prime minister in 1955. Its principal focus is the period 1945-1955, during which the full force of Churchill's personal diplomacy was directed at sustaining Britain's great power status-in relation to the Soviet Union and t...
