|a Rome: Strategy of Empire is the first book in nearly five decades to explore Roman strategic thinking and execution. Combining both thematic chapters with a narrative history of the Roman Empire, this work explores how the Empire survived for over five hundred years despite being challenged by ruthless and determined enemies on every front. Rome: Strategy of Empire dispels many of the myths and errors that have crept up in Roman studies since the 1970s, including the most widespread and pernicious of them all: that the Romans were incapable of executing on a strategic level or even of thinking in strategic terms. The Roman Empire was a military autocracy built and maintained on the backs of the legions and this work explores Rome's military power and its use in detail. In addition, it explains how Rome sustained its power through diplomacy, superior administration, and most crucially, never (until the end of the Empire) losing sight of the crucial role economics plays as a foundation for military power. Rome: Strategy of Empire not only tells the reader what happened; it explains why it happened.
