From the Publisher:
In the tradition of Robert Graves (I, Claudius) and Mary Renault (The Last of the Wine), Eagle in the Snow is a quality re-publication of the lost classic with an introduction by international bestselling historical novelist Steven Pressfield.
About the Author:
Wallace Breem was born in 1926 and educated at Westminster School. In 1944 he entered the Indian Army Officers' Training School and later joined a crack regiment of the North West Frontier Force. After the war he took a number of temporary jobs, eventually joining the library staff of the Honourable Society of the Inner Temple. By 1965 he had become the 11th Chief Librarian and Keeper of Manuscripts. He was a founder member of the British and Irish Association of Law Librarians. He served the organisation in a number of senior capacities from 1969 until his death in 1990, when the Association and the Inner Temple jointly set up a Memorial Award in his honour.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Jacket by David Wu (illustrator). First Thus. First published by Gollancz in 1970, this is a first impression of the new edition, published in 2003. Some very slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, very slight lean, not price clipped (£10.00), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 368pp, illustrated endpapers. The year is 406 AD. A single Roman legion stands guard on the Rhine. Only these few men, a thin stretch of river and the determination of their general, Maximus, hold the frontier for Rome against the barbarian hordes. Maximus is urged to proclaim himself emperor, but he stands by his concept of duty and holds the frontier for longer than seems possible. Then chance plays a cruel trick. First published in 1970, EAGLE IN THE SNOW is a taut, gripping story of the fall of the Roman Empire in microcosm, as seen through the eyes of Maximus. Wallace Wilfred Swinburne Breem (1926-90), was a British librarian and author, he is probably best known for his three historical novels, especially 'Eagle in the Snow'. Seller Inventory # 009251
