So many historians treat history like a cadaver, it's dead, dead, dead. By Dr. Goldsworthy revives the patient and treats us to stories about our past that are relevant, alive and well.

2.Caesar: Life of a ColossusCaesar: Life of a Colossus
from Yale University Press
Price: $12.69

Customer Review:
I was looking for a basic grounding in Roman history and customs and Caesar's exploits in the 1st century BC. It came down to Freeman's and Goldsworthy's biographies. This one is 600 pages and Freeman's is 400 pages. In the end I decided to read both, beginning with Freeman.
Freeman's biography... more info

4.The Complete Roman ArmyThe Complete Roman Army
from Thames & Hudson
Price: $24.59

Customer Review:
This book is really just a compilation of several smaller works, but on a whole it's not a great primer on the Roman Army. Greater detail can be found in various older works. A comprehensive overview has yet to be written.

from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $36.49

Customer Review:
Adrian Goldsworthy has done an admirable bit of analytical history regarding the Roman Army from 100 BC to 200 AD. His analysis has put him at odds with some reviewers, but I applaud him for stretching the subject matter for all its worth. When comparing Goldsworthy's thesis/book with earlier works... more info
