Book Synopsis
In 218, Hannibal Barca, desperate to avenge the defeat of Carthage in the First Punic War, launched an ambitious ground invasion of Italy. The Romans had no answer to Hannibal until the young Scipio volunteered to take over Rome’s armies in Spain, which were close to defeat, and left leaderless by the death of Scipio’s own father and uncle.

Trade Review
'As fast paced and skilfully executed as one of Hannibal's campaigns, this is the perfect introduction to the second Punic War.’ -- Tom Holland
