{"product_id":"roman-legionary-58-bc-ad-69-ross-cowan-9781841766003","title":"Roman Legionary 58 BC-AD 69","description":"The period 31 BC-AD 43 saw the greatest expansion of the Roman Empire. In 31 BC Octavian defeated Antony at the battle of Actium and remodelled the semi-professional Roman army into a permanent force of 28 legions. Octavian became the first emperor (Augustus) and under his leadership the legions conquered northern Spain, all Europe south of the Danube line and Germany west of the Elbe. The legionaries exemplified the heroic culture of the Roman world and this title takes a behind-the-scenes look at their lives, training, weaponry and tactics, including the bloody massacre of the Teutoberg forest.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ross Cowan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841766003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841766003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/20\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.06h x 7.32w x 0.24d","brand":"Ross Cowan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44311383507199,"sku":"9781841766003","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ebf824fc-9f58-495e-b950-0ca54209aae2.jpg?v=1695722513","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/roman-legionary-58-bc-ad-69-ross-cowan-9781841766003","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
