ISBN10: 1848847963, ISBN13: 9781848847965, [publisher: Pen & Sword Books Ltd, South Yorkshire] Hardcover Hardcover. Richard Evans revisits the sites of a selection of Greek and Roman battles and sieges to seek new insights. The battle narratives in ancient sources can be a thrilling read and form the basis of our knowledge of these epic events, but they can just as often provide an incomplete or obscure record. Details, especially those related to topographical and geographical issues which can have a fundamental importance to military actions, are left tantalisingly unclear to the modern reader.
