The Fall of Carthage was the greatest conflict of the ancient world,
and thanks to one of the finest historians of our time, this sweeping
saga comes to life anew for modern audiences. The cast of endlessly
fascinating characters includes the generals Hannibal and Scipio, as
well as treacherous chieftains, beautiful princesses, scheming
politicians, and tough professional warriors.
