«Warfare in the Ancient World is a comprehensive survey of military systems and their evolution from the earliest recorded times to the Late Roman Empire. Under the editorship of General Sir John Hackett, himself a classical scholar and one of our foremost soldier-historians, it analyses period by period the organization, tactics, armour and weaponry of armies from the host of the Egyptian Pharaoh Thutmosis II to the mobile army which shored up the crumbling Roman Empire in the Fifth century AD.»
