fascinating
Posted by Tacron Dude on 27th Apr 2011
An easy to read but fascinating insight into late antiquity. This book was written at a time when the Roman empire in the West was in steady decline. Under contunious pressure from barbarian tribes, Roman military men of the time were seeking ways to reform the Roman army, hearkening back to the glory days of the late Republic and early Imperial periods, when the Roman military machine had no equal in the known world.
Flavius Vegetius wrote this book as a set of recommended military reforms for the emperor. Alas, while it proved a matter of "too little, too late" for the west, it still offers us a very telling window into the past.
