Combining the latest archaeological discoveries with modern-day reconstructions, this book (written by a leading expert, the author of ‚Chronicle of the Roman Republic‘, ‚The Enemies of Rome‘, ‚The Sons of Caesar‘ and ‚Ancient Rome on Five Denarii a Day‘) provides a vivid picture of what it meant to be a Roman Legionary. How to be accepted into the legions and which legion is for you; What to wear – and what not to wear – while on campaign; Who’s Who in the Roman army, and how to tell a Berber from a Pict: How to wield a gladius and fire a catapult; How to storm a city and survive; How to act when Rome is honouring your legion with a triumph. "A very interesting, original and well structured work for anyone who enjoys Roman military themes … a fun and easy read" – Ancient Warfare
