Anabasis Alexandri Book VIII is a historical account written by Arrian that chronicles the expedition of Alexander the Great in India. The book is the eighth and final volume of the Anabasis Alexandri series and covers the period from 326 BC to 325 BC. The book begins with Alexander's arrival in the Punjab region and his encounters with local tribes and rulers. Arrian describes the battles and skirmishes that took place between Alexander's army and the Indian forces, including the famous Battle of Hydaspes. The narrative also includes details of Alexander's political and diplomatic engagements with the Indian rulers, as well as his efforts to establish Greek colonies in the region. The book concludes with Alexander's decision to turn back and return to Babylon, leaving behind a portion of his army to govern the newly acquired territories. Overall, Anabasis Alexandri Book VIII is a detailed and comprehensive account of Alexander's Indian campaign, providing insight into the military tactics, political strategies, and cultural interactions that shaped this pivotal moment in history.Giving his right hand to Nearchus and leading him aside from the Companions and the bodyguard, for a long time he wept; but at length recovering himself he said: 'That you come back safe to us, and Archias here, the entire disaster is tempered to me; but how perished the fleet and the force?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
