An excellent collection 22 Mar 2006
By Christopher Francese - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book prints the most important primary sources about the Roman army and its activities--inscriptions, papyri, excerpts from Vegetius--with helpful commentary and context. Fascinating in its concrete detail, this is the perfect antidote to the overly schematized generalizations about the army that one finds in more popular accounts.

another excellent reference 17 May 2000
By TammyJo Eckhart - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
An excellent way to supplement the standard book on the Roman army by Wilkes, Campbell's reference book makes available at reasonable costs some primary information about the army. Here we have the political and legal views along side those of the commander and common soldier. A great resource for graduates and undergraduates.

The hastati and principes carried an oval shield, two throwing-spears of different weights, and the two-edged Spanish sword; the most experienced soldiers, the triarii, formed the third rank armed with thrusting-spears. &quote;
