Description
The first dedicated examination of Alexander the Great's final battle and acknowledged tactical
masterpiece. In the years that followed Alexander the Great's victory at Gaugamela on 1 October
331 BC, his Macedonian and Greek army fought a truly 'Herculean' series of campaigns in what is
today Iran, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. But it was in the Indus Valley, on the banks
of the Hydaspes River (known today as the Jhelum) in 326 BC that Alexander would fight his last
major battle against King Poros. Using detailed maps and 3D diagrams, this beautifully illustrated
work shows how Alexander used feints and deception to transport a select force from his army
across the swollen River Hydaspes without attracting the enemy's attention, allowing his troops the
crucial element of surprise. Battlescene artworks and photographs reveal the fascinating array of
forces that clashed in the battle, including Indian war elephants and chariots, and horse archers
and phalanx formations. Also examined are the differences in weaponry and armour between the
opposing sides, which would prove crucial to the outcome. Although a tactical masterpiece, the
Hydaspes was the closest that Alexander the Great came to defeat, and was one of the costliest
battles fought by his near-exhausted army.
