The Complete Roman Legions
Nigel Pollard, Joanne Berry
The legions of Rome were among the greatest fighting forces in
history. For almost half a millennium they secured the known world
under the power of the Caesars. This pioneering account gathers
together the stories of each and every imperial legion, telling the
tales of their triumphs and defeats as they policed the empire and
enlarged its borders.
Focusing on the legions as the core of the Roman army, and
chronicling their individual histories in detail, the book builds
on the thematic account of the Roman military force given by its
companion The Complete Roman Army, and is vital reading.
