Description

This study discusses the practice of warfare in Europe, from both Roman and barbarian perspectives, in the late 4th and early 5th centuries AD. It analyzes the military practices and capabilities of the Romans and their northern enemies, at policy, strategic, operational and tactical levels, and covers civil wars, sieges and naval warfare. Dr Elton discusses the issue of barbarization, and shows that it did not affect the efficiency of the Roman Army. Other sections of the book discuss organization, fortifications and equipment.
