520 _a"The Story of Alexander" by Robert Steele is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book recounts the life and adventures of Alexander the Great, including his royal lineage and remarkable feats, rooted in a narrative style reminiscent of tales told in the Middle Ages. It combines elements of legend and myth, emphasizing the heroic qualities and destiny of Alexander as a conqueror. The opening of the narrative introduces a character named Anectanabus, who, once king of Egypt, is skilled in magic and seeks to protect his kingdom from the invading Persians. After a prophetic realization and feeling the impending doom of his reign, he decides to flee to Macedon, where he encounters Olympias, the mother of Alexander. The text unfolds in a fashion reminiscent of ancient mythologies, laying the foundation for the eventual birth and legendary exploits of Alexander, who will rise to prominence as a formidable ruler destined for greatness, entwined with the themes of magic, prophecy, and the trials of royal lineage.
