Rome and Her Enemies by Jane Penrose
Spanning over a thousand years, the Roman Empire was the greatest in world history. The Etruscans, the Carthaginians, the British, the Persians, the Goths and the Huns are among the forces that battled the might of Rome. This illustrated book juxtaposes the society and military structure of these peoples with those of the contemporary Roman army.
