He wrote that 'That victory secured at once and for ever the independence of the Teutonic race'. This has been the accepted interpretation ever since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is, though, unlikely that any one battle, however successful, could halt the expansion of the Roman Empire, and a broader view is called for. This will require a study of the entire period between Augustus's first decision, in 16 BC, to attack Germany to 90 AD, when Domitian finally admitted that conquest was impossible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is an attempt to provide this study. The first chapter is a study of the Roman army and describes some basic Roman military procedures in particular those involved in marching and camp construction, then the campaigns involved are analysed in terms of these procedures. The result if this analysis is an entirely new interpretation of Roman motivation and of the 'Battle of the Teutoburg Wald', an interpretation dramatically different from that reached by other authors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-4206908\"\u003eJohn Plant\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Generation Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.78d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781803692722\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1803692723\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-HIS\"\u003eHistory\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-HIS027000\"\u003eMilitary | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Generation Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44593771938029,"sku":"9781803692722","price":26.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_84ab8d4e-8e03-42de-a5d0-2bbe94e52266.jpg?v=1702317387","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/the-roman-campaigns-in-germany-12-bc-to-90-ad-9781803692722","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
