Dear Patrons, 

The final (and possibly most epic) episode of the Alexander the Great series is available to view now on YouTube. Collaborating with Invicta and Osprey allowed me to create some really dramatic scenes which I hope you'll enjoy. Thank you all again for supporting Epic History TV and making this series possible, the amount of help and great feedback I get is always hugely encouraging. And I'll be in touch again very shortly with a vote for the next topic!

Epic History: Alexander the Great Part 4

Alexander the Great has defeated King Darius at the Battle of Gaugamela, and now pursues the Persian usurper Bessus east into modern Afghanistan. He will face revolt, guerilla war and Scythian nomads, but finally he reaches the furthest point of the Persian Empire. He marries Roxana, daughter of a Bactrian lord, then continues his advance into modern Pakistan and India, where he clashes with King Porus of Pauravas at the Battle of the Hydaspes...

What is that opening musical score? Absolutely chilling.

So long ago, I don't remember now! It is one of the Filmstro themes, from the Action & Conflict section.

These are excellent for classroom use! And for better understanding for anyone interested in history. I hope you make lots of money for this! What a great project. Tim Meinzen

Thank you! I hope so too, although I think it's rather unlikely! I'd definitely settle for helping people to become interested by history.
