One of Alexander the Great's friends was Callisthenes, a relative of Aristotle. Some of his other long-time friends were Hephaestion, Cassander, and Ptolemy, who all served as generals in Alexander the Great's army.

It is not clear when the book of Deeds of Alexander was published. But secondary authors do not quote it to describe the events after 329, and it is possible that Callisthenes considered the death of Bessus, the last leader of the Persians, to be a fitting climax of his history. The book of Deeds of Alexander is now lost, but underlies much of what was written later.

There are many ancient sources on the career of the Macedonian conqueror Alexander the great: the Library of world history of Diodorus of Sicily, Quintus Curtius Rufus' History of Alexander the Great of Macedonia, a Life of Alexander by Plutarch of Chaeronea and the Anabasis by Arrian of Nicomedia are the best-known. All these authors lived more than three centuries after the events they described, but they used older, nearly contemporary sources, that are now lost.
