Synopsis:

This superbly illustrated volume traces the evolution of the art of warfare in the Greek and Roman worlds between 1600 B.C. and A.D. 800, from the rise of Mycenaean civilization to the fall of Ravenna and the collapse of the western Roman Empire. John Warry tells of an age of great military commanders such as Alexander the Great, Hannibal, and Julius Caesar - men whose feats of generalship still provide material for discussion and admiration in the military academies of the world. Rich illustrations of soldiers in uniform, equipment, weapons, warships, siege machines, war elephants, and more are accompanied by extensive captions. The text is complemented by a running chronology, 16 maps, 50 newly researched battle plans and tactical diagrams, and 125 photographs, 65 of them in color.


Review:

"The prose...is generally very readable, and the numerous large illustrations, especially those showing the common soldiers of different cultures and eras, keep one turning the pages."

Robert Wehner, Bloomsbury Review, January/February 1996

Review:

"Surely the ultimate book on this subject, with an accessible but scholarly text..."

Good Book Guide, March 1996
