Summary: Excellent book for starting your research!
Comment: This book has been around since the mid-1980's. It is well worth adding to your library of Roman Military books! The color drawings are not as fancy as the new style Osprey, but they show the details of Uniforms and equipments. The photographs and line drawings are excellent and make this well worth adding. Modern gladius copies use these sketches as the pattern for the decorations on scabbards. The descriptions and introductions of the Roman equipment are a good place to start learning.

Don't expect the artistic styles of later Osprey works, instead, you will find good scholarship from a master craftsman of Roman military equipment.

Summary: Good Writing but bad pictures
Comment: I thought the writing of The Roman Army from Caesar to Trajan was good but the pictures are a whole other story. The Pictures are way to jazzed up. There filled with fakey dramatic expressions. If you want a good Roman Army book Get Republican Roman Armies 200-104 BC.
