Publisher's Synopsis
Step onto the battlefields where Rome was forged! Before it became a mighty empire, Rome was a small city fighting for survival. Through epic wars against barbarians, rival republics, and legendary foes like Hannibal and Carthage, Rome rose from the ashes of defeat to become the greatest power of the ancient world.
Epic Battles for Boys: Battles of the Roman Republic brings twelve legendary battles to life, from the shocking Gallic sack of Rome at the Battle of the Allia to the crushing victory of Scipio Africanus at Zama. Readers will sail with Rome's first navy at Mylae, march with legions through the chaos of Cannae, and witness the fiery destruction of Carthage-all in thrilling, high-energy storytelling that makes history more exciting than any movie or game.
