Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Alexander
Perceiving that Alexander did not easily Submit to author ity, because he would not he forced to any thing, but that he might be led to his duty by the gentler hand of reason, Philip took the method of persuasion rather than of command.
He saw that his education was a matter of too great impor tance to be trusted to the ordinary masters in music and the common circle of sciences. He therefore sent for Aristotle, the most celebrated and learned of all the philosophers, and gave him the charge of his son's education.
