Explores the course of Roman wars that ensued as successive emperors sought to extend the empire -- including Claudius' conquest of Britannia, Domitian's campaigns on the Rhine and the Danube, Trajan's Dacian Wars and Parthian War, Marcus Aurelius' Marcomannic Wars, and the Jewish Wars. The period covered in this book ends with the consolidation of the Roman frontiers along the Rhine and Danube.
Provides a summary of the strengths, limitations, and evolving character of the Roman army during the first two centuries AD, as well as those of the forces of Rome's enemies across the Rhine and Danube in Germany and Romania, and in the East, in the form of the Parthian empire of Iraq/Iran. Fully illustrated with photographs depicting the emperors, armies and enemies, and the remains of Roman fortifications and public buildings, plus informative full-color maps, this is the epic story of the wars waged by a succession of emperors during the period in which Imperial Rome reached its zenith.
