"Hannibal is an epic biography of the military genius who nearly ended Rome’s imperial expansion." "A simultaneously propulsive and nuanced account that hums on the page. " "Freeman does give his readers much to consider in learning about a totally alien world in an easy, uncomplicated lively prose about an epic tale."
"Over two thousand years ago one of the greatest military leaders in history almost destroyed Rome. Hannibal, a daring African general from the city of Carthage, led an army of warriors and battle elephants over the snowy Alps to invade the very heart of Rome's growing empire. But what kind of person would dare to face the most relentless imperial power of the ancient world? How could Hannibal, consistently outnumbered and always deep in enemy territory, win battle after battle until he held the very fate of Rome within his grasp?"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

I also liked this book because the 19 pages at the end listed several of the main scholarly writings from which the author obtained his information. Amongst them: Livy, Polybius, Pinder, and Plutarch. The author attempts to evaluate their bias. ( )
