The Imperial Roman Army by Yann Le Bohec

The Imperial Roman Army by Yann Le Bohec

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.

'An essential purchase, the most helpful The Roman Army where the chapters on "the pratcial role" and "cultural influence" are not to be missed even by those whose interest in things military are slight' - Greece and Rome

Yann Le Bohec is Professor Doctor Emeritus at the Sorbonne University in Paris. He is the author of more than twenty books on military history including The Imperial Roman Army (1994), which has been translated into six languages.
