Barnsley: Frontline Books, 2009. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. A fine new copy. From the Latin warriors on the Palatine Hill in the age of Romulus, to the last defenders of Constantinople in 1453 AD, the weaponry of the Roman Army was constantly evolving. Through glory and defeat, the Roman warrior adapted to the changing face of warfare. Due to the immense size of the Roman Empire, which reached fromthe British Isles to the Arabian Gulf, the equipment of the Roman soldier varied greatly from region to region.Through the use of materials such as leather, linen and felt, the army was able to adjust its equipment to these varied climates. Arms and Armour of the Imperial Roman Soldier sheds new light on the many different types of armour used by the Roman soldier, and combines written and artistic sources with the analysis of old and new archaeological finds. With a huge wealth of plates and illustrations, which include ancient paintings, mosaics, sculptures…

Donington: Paul Watkins Publishing, 2016. Book. Fine. Hardcover. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. A fine new copy. 254pp + colour illustrations. This is an important collection of essays from a conference held to celebrate and review the battle at which Scottish independence was asserted in 1314, and its place in Scottish culture and historiography. Robert Burns immortalised the battle as a victory over tyranny with his 'Scots, wha hae wi' Wallace bled' poem. No battle has played such a pivotal role in Scottish identity, Bannockburn Day being an important annual celebration in Scotland. It was no coincidence that the 700th anniversary coincided with the campaign for the Scottish referendum. There are 13 essays in the book by leading historians and a full index. The authors are Michael Penman, David H. Caldwell, Andrew Ayton, David Simpkin, Tony Pollard, Alasdair Ross, Richard Tipping, Peter Yeoman, Sarah Tolmie, John Morrison, Andrew P. K. Wright and Edward J. Cowan..

Lawrence became world-famous as 'Lawrence of Arabia', after helping Sherif Hussein of Mecca gain independence from Turkey during the Arab Revolt of 1916-18. His achievements, however, would have been impossible without the unsung efforts of a forgotten band of fellow officers and spies. This groundbreaking account by Philip Walker interweaves the compelling stories of Colonel Cyril Wilson and a colourful supporting cast with the narrative of Lawrence and the desert campaign. These men's lost tales provide a remarkable and fresh perspective on Lawrence and the Arab Revolt. While Lawrence and others blew up trains in the desert, Wilson and his men carried out their shadowy intelligence and diplomatic work. His deputies rooted out anti-British soldiers who were trying to sabotage the revolt. Meanwhile, Lieutenant…
