Publisher Description

The struggle between Rome and Carthage in the Punic Wars was arguably the greatest and most desperate conflict of antiquity. The forces involved and the casualties suffered by both sides were far greater than in any wars fought before the modern era, while the eventual outcome had far-reaching consequences for the history of the Western World, namely the ascendancy of Rome. An epic of war and battle, this is also the story of famous generals and leaders: Hannibal, Fabius Maximus, Scipio Africanus, and his grandson Scipio Aemilianus, who would finally bring down the walls of Carthage.

Must read for historians but definitely fans of the Punic Wars

Goldsworthy is phenomenal. I listened to him on several podcasts and now read this book. As a fan of Hannibal, I wanted a broader picture of the other wars that bookend his. This book will not disappoint!!!
