Summary
"This book is the first to examine in detail not just the early imperial army, but the citizen's militia of the Republic and the army of the later Empire. The unprecedented scope and longevity of Roman military success is placed in the context of ordinary soldiers' daily lives, whether spent in the quiet routine of a peaceful garrison or in arduous campaign and violent combat." "Impressive in scope and written for a general audience, the book draws on archaeology, ancient art and original documentary sources to present the most convincing picture ever published of the Roman army."--Jacket.
