Autoren-Porträt von Alexander Canduci
Alexander Canduci lives in Sydney, Australia, and has had a lifelong love affair with ancient and medieval history. In 2005, he published Getting It Right: The manipulation of history. His principal areas of interest are the Roman Revolution, charting the years of the fall of the Roman Republic; the Empire of Byzantium from its founding through to the Fourth Crusade; the history of England from the reign of Richard III through to the overthrow of James II; and the history of the Reformation. In his spare time, he reads histories, composes catchy pop songs, and adds more books to his personal library of over 200 works on history.
