Roman Guardsman, 62 BC-AD 324 - Ross Cowan

From the civil wars of the Late Republic to Constantine\'s bloody reunification of the Empire, elite corps of guardsmen were at the heart of every Roman army. Whether as bodyguards or as shock troops in battle, the fighting skills of praetorians, speculatores, singulares and protectores determined the course of Roman history. Modern scholars tend to present the praetorians as pampered, disloyal and battle-shy, but the Romans knew them as valiant warriors, men who strove to live up to their honorific title pia vindex - loyal and avenging. Closely associated with the Republican praetori Roman Guardsman, 62 BC-AD 324 - Ross Cowan od authora Ross Cowan a nakladatelství za skvělé ceny na e-shopu Martinus.cz
