Now available in paperback, The Imperial Roman Army looks at the structure and development of the army between the Republic and the Late Empire, examining why the army has always been accorded such a prominent position in the history of the Roman Empire, and whether that view is justified.The book is divided into three sections. The author first examines the major divisions of army organization, the legions, the auxiliary units, the fleet and how the men were recruited. Secondly he looks at what the army did, their training, tactics and strategy. Finally he considers the historical role of the army and how it fitted into Roman society.

Den legendariske Gajus Julius Caesar är en av de män som haft störst inflytande på historien, från kultur och språk till styrelseskick och krigföring. Myten om patriciern som lyckades skaffa sig nästan oinskränkt makt över enorma landområden har fängslat författare, politiker och historiker i snart två tusen år. Caesar berättar historien om den store härföraren, statsmannen och författaren. Läsaren får följa hans uppväxtår i Rom, inträdandet i politiken, de otaliga allianserna och intrigerna, erövringstågen, inbördeskriget och det växande motståndet mot hans maktfullkomlighet, vilket utmynnar i mordet på honom den 15:e mars år 44 f.Kr. Boken är på samma gång ett porträtt av den berömde mannen och en guide till en viktig period i vår historia.
