It make worthwhile effort to read various campaigns which have been carried out in the course of history.

Alexander's personal historian Arrian has recorded many of the campains.

The Battle of Hydaspes is graphically described.

How with a mere meagre force of 6000, he was able to tilt the balance and beat Porus's army of 30000 together with 200 war elephants.

Then there is the Battle of Tarain which has been described by the dairiyist if Mohammed of Ghaur.

We also have details about the Afgan-Maratha War and the Battle of Talikota.

They make very absorbing reading.
