Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - altersgemäß sehr guter Zustand / very good condition for age - Although it has long been recognized that supply was the basis of Alexander s strategy and tactics, a systematic study of the Macedonian army s logistics has never been undertaken. This neglect has been unfortunate since it has caused some erroneous assumptions about Alexander s generalship, especially in the Gedrosian campaign. Indeed, Tarn devoted only a fragment of a sentence to the problem: "as for commissariat, supplies were collected in each district as conquered and used for the next advance." In fact, we hope to show that generally the opposite was the case. Because of the restricted capabilities of the methods of land transportation available to Alexander, only a limited amount of supplies could be carried from one district to the next. Hence, Alexander would have to arrange the collection of provisions in advance, and this was done with the local officials, who regularly surrendered to him before the army marched into their territory. Tarn s simplistic view is not surprising, however, for the picture that emerges from the ancient authorities is that Alexander never needed any logistic planning at all, but secured his provisions as he went in some mysterious, automatic sequence.
