highly recommended
best legionary
This is the best book that I have ever read about the
legion
s of
Rome
. The story of a
legionary
, followed through his training and his participation in actual battles, was very authentic. I am a Roman Historian and most books follow the Generals..... this follows the followers.... I would highly recommend it.
Great book about the roman army
This was a great book that really emphasized life of a solder in the roman army. Was very interesting perspective since the author is a solder himself. I also liked that this book has sourced information in the back to prove that this book was well researched when many historical fiction
novel
s are far from it. I would highly recomend this book to anyone who is a fan of Roman history, is in the army, or has a family member in the military.

Pure Testosterone!
I was originally drawn to this book for its historical perspective but once I started turning the pages I literally did not want to stop until I was finished. The descriptive ability of this author in regards to the trials and tribulations of the main character and his quest to "do his duty" is simply perfection. I felt as if I was engaging in training combat in the beginning and I felt the adrenalin surge hit me when the opposing armies clashed for the climax. For 300 plus pages I was a
Legion
ary! The love of one's country and willingness to die defending your beliefs is the hidden current in this book and as each new paragraph exploded from the pages, it reminded me once again what it means to be an American.
