The leader of an empire invades Iraq. He has inadequate intelligence and underestimates the resistance of the locals, but he believes his overwhelming military strength will bring him a swift victory. His army overruns the area between the Tigris and the Euphrates, but as soon as he occupies the area a massive insurgency arises, made up of various ethnic and religious groups. What began as a simple conquest for dominance bogs down in deadly fighting as the once-victorious commander-in-chief now desperately searches for an exit strategy.... This scenario could be any number of Roman campaigns, No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

This volume is mainly useful as a chronology of Roman operations in Parthia and Armenia up to the demise of the Parthian Empire.
The author otherwise tries too much to draw parallels between Roman operations and American operations in Iraq.
