Cover of Nigel Bagnall: Punic Wars (ePUB)

The Punic Wars (264-146BC) sprang from a mighty power struggle between two ancient civilisations – the trading empire of Carthage and the military confedoration of Rome. It was a period of astonishing human misfortune, lasting over a period of 118 years and resulting in the radical depletion of Rome’s population and resources and the complete annihilation of Carthage. All this took place more than 2, 000 years ago, yet, as Nigel Bagnall’s comprehensive history demonstrates, the ancient conflict is remarkable for its contemporary revelance.
