Synopsis
The Roman Empire was the greatest the world has ever seen, and its legendary military might was the foundation of this success.
This compact volume tells the fascinating story of the major conflicts that shaped the empire, from Julius Caesar's bloody Gallic Wars and the Civil War against Pompey that left the victorious Caesar the Dictator of Rome, through the wars of expansion to its decline and fragmentation. Beautiful full-color artwork of the soldiers and battles bring the Roman world to life, along with images and color maps.
