Book Reviews of Roman Auxiliary Cavalryman: AD 14-193 (Warrior)
Book Review: Standard Warrior Title
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is the typical Osprey Warrior book, the text detailing origins, military identity and culture, appearance, gear, tactics, duties, and daily life of the subject. This title examines the elite horsemen, often of 'barbarian' Gaulish, Germanic, and Thracian origin, who aided the Roman legionaries in their wars of the 1st and 2nd Centuries AD.
Summary of Roman Auxiliary Cavalryman: AD 14-193 (Warrior)
Drawn from a wide range of warlike peoples throughout the provinces, especially on the fringes of the empire, auxiliaries were generally not citizens of the Roman empire. The cavalry of the auxilia provided a powerful fighting arm; organized, disciplined and well trained, it was adept at performing both skirmish and shock action. This book details the many roles of the Roman auxiliary cavalryman, including reconnaissance, communication and policing duties, as well as in battle. Motivation for enlisting, conditions of service and experience of battle are all explored, and colour illustrations support the text.Rome Books
