The Roman Legions Recreated in Colour Photographs by Daniel Peterson
This is a study of the Roman soldier, his uniform, armour, weapons and field equipment, in colour photographs. Drawing on the efforts of archaeologists, mainly in Germany, US Army historian Daniel Peterson presents a review of the legionary, the cavalry trooper and the auxiliary light infantryman, from the earliest Etruscan times to the final fall of the Empire. The photographs reconstruct dozens of different helmets, armours and weapons worn in lifelike outdoor settings - some of them photographed during experimental route-marches in rough terrain. The captions identify and explain the sources used in these reconstructions, telling the story of the Roman soldier's battle gear in its historical setting. This book is designed to be of interest as a reference for the history enthusiast, modeller and artist as well as an educational resource for students.
