About

Of Long Ago

The story of Nearchus, a Macedonian boy, laid during the the time of Philip of Macedon and Alexander the Great. The author sought to “sketch a background of Macedonian lights and shadows, trusting that, when the readers of the story begin their study of the lives of Philip of Macedon and Alexander the Great, the details of literal history may—against this background—stand out with greater reality.”

First published in 1915, this edition is derived from the original book with 6 black & white illustrations by John Goss. As always, this edition is complete and unabridged.
