More about the book
Focusing on the Roman army during the Second Punic War, the book explores the evolution of a citizen army alongside the formation of professional units, specifically the Cannae's legions made up of veterans from the pivotal battle of Cannae in 216 BCE. It highlights how these legions exhibited traits that would later define the Late Republic and Imperial Roman army, predating Marius's reforms by a century. The narrative delves into military structure and the significance of veteran soldiers in shaping Rome's military legacy.
