With its mixture of famous battles and storied commanders, warfare in 4th century B.C. Greece has long held a fascination for military enthusiasts and the general public alike. Histories, biographies, and popular culture have turned the exploits of noted generals like Xenophon and Iphicrates of Athens, Epaminondas of Thebes, and the father-son team of Philip II and Alexander the Great of Macedonia into the stuff of legend. Drawing from ancient accounts along with suitable analogs, this detailed work offers meticulous reconstructions of 187 of the 4th century's most significant land engagements

IIe siècle après Jésus-Christ : Rome est à son apogée. Son empire, immense, s'étend de l'Atlantique à la Mer noire, de la Méditerranée aux confins de l'Orient. Pierre angulaire du système impérial, l'armée multiplie les conquêtes et assure leur pérennité. Sa réputation est sans égale. Reflet des circonstances politiques, économiques et sociales, elle est pourtant loin d'être une armée parfaite. Désertions, passages à l'ennemi, mutineries ne sont pas rares. Aussi les Césars se sont-ils attachés, en recourant aux punitions, aux récompenses, et avant tout à la discipline, à faire de l'ensemble une machine de guerre efficace. Machine de guerre qui eut des moments de faiblesse, connut de cuisantes défaites et profita de circonstances extérieures favorables, comme la division de ses ennemis. Nourri aux meilleures sources, croisant les textes littéraires, juridiques, les inscriptions et les résultats des fouilles archéologiques, l'ouvrage de Catherine Wolff offre une synthèse vivante de cette histoire militaire, de l'époque républicaine à la mort de l'empereur Commode en 192 après J-C.

There are many biographies of the Prophet, and they tend to fall into three categories: pious works that emphasize the virtues of the early Islamic community, general works for non-Muslim or non-specialist readers, and source-critical works that grapple with historiographical problems inherent in early Islamic history. In The Generalship of Muhammad, Russ Rodgers charts a new path by merging original sources with the latest in military theory to examine Muhammad's military strengths and weaknesses. Incorporating military, political, and economic analyses, Rodgers focuses
