You may not have heard of Alexander the Great.  But you surely will sometime in your life.  And why is it that we hear about a man who lives 2500 years ago?  Alexander was perhaps one of the most powerful conquerors of all time.  Born in Greece, he was the son of King Phillip of Macedon.  Alexander became king at the age of 20.  I think you will find his biography to be an interesting read.
