In this sumptuous guide to twelve centuries of military development, Peter Connolly combines a detailed account of the arms and armies of Greece and Rome with this superb full color artwork. These are the best and most accurate representation of how the soldiers from these formidable military empires appeared. Making use of fresh archaeological evidence and new material on the manufacture and use of the weapons of the period, the author presents an attractive and impressive scholarly volume.

Peter Connolly (1935-2012) fue uno de los más importantes investigadores británicos del mundo antiguo, historiador y arqueólogo especializado en equipamiento militar romano y griego, y afamado ilustrador histórico. Connolly estudió en la facultad de Arte de la Universidad de Brighton (Brighton College of Arts and Crafts) y escribió su primer libro, The roman army, en 1975. A este le seguirían una veintena de obras ilustradas sobre el mundo antiguo, tales como Pompeii, Greece and Rome at War,The Greek Armies, The Roman Army, Colosseum: Rome's Arena of Death, and the award-winning Legend of Odysseus.
