He went on to defeat the hitherto-invincible Hannibal in a small battle around the central Italian city of Nola, and subsequently led an army to subdue and plunder the powerful city of Syracuse in an epic 2 year siege.

Inevitably this eventually provoked Roman attempts at invasion and conquest. It is a measure of Dacian prowess and resilience that several tough campaigns were required over more than a century before their kingdom was added to the Roman Empire.

Furthermore, any interest in Brutus has tended to focus only on events surrounding his most legendary act, Caesar's murder. This biography instead considers Brutus in his historical context, gathering details from ancient evidence and piecing together, as far as possible, his whole life. While his actions played a pivotal role in Roman history, ultimately, although completely unintentionally, bringing about the downfall of the Roman republic, Brutus has often been neglected. Indeed, he has rarely been considered on his own merits, instead featuring as part of the biographies and studies of other leading political figures of the time, especially those of Julius Caesar, Cicero and Octavian. As the first dedicated biography in over 30 years, this full and balanced reconsideration of this significant Roman republican is long overdue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military History Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67669631238443,"sku":"16801","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/1289\/5019\/files\/brutus-caesar-s-assassin-by-kirsty-corrigan-new-2015-1st-edition-hardback_16801_main_original.jpg?v=1791248671"},{"product_id":"the-roman-barbarian-wars","title":"THE ROMAN BARBARIAN WARS","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ludwig Heinrich Dyck\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pen \u0026amp; Sword\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear published:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2015\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePagination:\u003c\/strong\u003e 238pp, 5 maps, 16 colour \u0026amp; b\/w illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good in plastic covered d\/w\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Rome grew from a small city state to the mightiest empire of the west, her dominion was contested not only by the civilizations of the Mediterranean, but also by the ‘barbarians’ – the tribal peoples of Europe.
