...by Steven Pressfield, is an interesting and enlightening book with modern day parallels.
It details the story of Alexander's campaign against the Afghan tribes as he marched through the area on his way to India, and the consequences upon both himself and his army--what they had to do to defeat this enemy, and its effect on them personally.
The enlightened and civilized Macedonians going up against true barbarians makes for fascinating reading. Very highly recommended.
