Item description from seller

Hardback 299 pages illustrated throughout in colourPublished Price £40 In antiquity, the Iberian Peninsulaâ€"encompassing modern Spain and Portugalâ€"produced warrior cultures of considerable renown. Iberian, Celtiberian, and other regional peoples contributed elite infantry and cavalry to the Carthaginian armies that campaigned in Italy under Hannibal, and they demonstrated even greater ferocity in defending their homelands against subsequent Roman conquest. The Lusitanian resistance led by Viriathus, in particular, posed one of the most formidable challenges faced by Roman forces anywhere in the Mediterranean.In this volume, Professor Quesada Sanz offers a detailed and authoritative examination of the arms, armour, and equipment of the peninsula’s diverse warrior groups, drawing on an exceptional command of current archaeological and historical research. His clear, analytically rigorous text is complemented by an extensive array of photographs, diagrams, and colour illustrations by Carlos Fernández del Castillo. The result is a rare synthesis of comprehensive scholarship and striking visual presentation, appealing to readers with an interest in ancient warfare, material culture, and military history.The original Spanish edition received the Hislibris Award for “Best Historical Book” in 2010, and it is presented here in a faithful and accessible English translation.
