Ancient Warfare Illustrated Atlas

Strategies, Tactics & Combat Skills

Arranged by type of warfare, Ancient Warfare Illustrated Atlas is an essential companion for understanding classical warfare. Using specially-commissioned maps and artworks, the book shows in detail the methods by which armies, including Ancient Greek and Roman forces, prevailed over their foes, and why others failed.

War elephants, chariots, cavalry; ringmail, belly-bows and spears; Kadesh, Alesia, Masada – Ancient Warfare Illustrated Atlas describes the equipment, weapons and tactics of soldiers in Europe and the Middle East in an age before gunpowder. The book explores the tactics required to win battles and points out how little has changed in some respects in the art of war. Using specially-commissioned maps and artworks to illustrate the battles, equipment and tactics of the era, the book shows in detail the methods by which armies, including Assyrian, Egyptian, Greek and Roman forces, prevailed over their foes, and why other armies were far less successful. Arranged by type of warfare – from infantry to mounted warfare to siege and finally naval warfare – Ancient Warfare Illustrated Atlas is an essential companion for any reader in warfare in the classical age.
