BOOK REVIEWS about this book
=================================================
World Council of Hellens Abroad (SAE)
Office of the President, Ref. 670
Dear Mr. Zorzos,
I would like to thank you for forwarding to me a copy of Volume V of the
Technical of Alexander the Great.
I had a chance to look through this important work and agree with your
analysis that much of the information on economics, technical advances,
laws, building projects, etc. of the era of Alexander the Great are not
readily accessible to the public.
SAE recognizes the importance of the scholar work you are doing for the
purpose of creating and maintaining an accurate historical account on this
critical subject.
You have helped fill a major gap in historical research and deserve the
congratulations of all Hellens and Philhellens.
Andrew Athens
