What to expect

Praise for Guy de la Bedoyere's Gladius: Living, Fighting and Dying in the Roman Army
Gladius makes for a richly researched, detailed and plausible portrait, warts and all, bang up to date with the latest archaeological finds, and a highly enjoyable read throughout Christopher Hart , Sunday Times

A remarkably precise picture of life in the Roman army - how the men were armed and billeted, what they ate, drank, wore, how they were promoted or punished, how they built their great, straight roads, what they did for sexual relief Daily Telegraph

An impressive amalgamation of scholarly research with popular history

Superb… de la Bédoyere lays out the elusive history of Egypt’s 18th dynasty

Packed with big names, from Tutankhamun to Nefertiti, and de la Bédoyere sets their stories alongside those of the populations they so often exploited… Along the way, he offers an evocative account of an era of epic riches and ruthlessness

History Revealed

De la Bédoyere tells the story with not just an archaeologist’s eye for accuracy but also a broadcaster’s nose for a colourful story… His book is peppered with lively details
