Siculus Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Hello fellow Romans some time ago it seemed that a new edition (or at least reprint) of Peter Connolly's "Greece and Rome at War" was to be expected late 2011/early 2012 (with a foreword by Adrian Goldsworthy) - at least according to Amazon. This does not seem to be the case any longer. Does anyone have an update on this?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DecimusCaesar Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 I'm curious to know what's been updated in the lastest edition. I think in the last edition there were only a few changes, mostly involving such minor details as changing the Samnite banners into tunics hung on spears, as what was once believed to be a Samnite Flag depicted on a wall painting might actually have been looted clothing. It actually goes to show the quality of the scholarship put into the book that only a few changes were necessary, although new editions of old scholarly works sometimes need a complete re-write. If there have been substantial changes to this New Edition then I wil definately get this one, as Greece and Rome at War is one of the best books ever written on ancient warfare.
