Livy's The Second Punic War: Book 21 And Selections From Books 22-30 is a historical account of the Second Punic War, one of the most significant conflicts in ancient Rome's history. The book covers the period between 218 and 201 BC, during which Hannibal, the Carthaginian general, led his army across the Alps to invade Italy. Livy's narrative provides a detailed account of the battles, strategies, and political events that took place during this period, including the famous battles of Cannae and Zama. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part covering Book 21, which focuses on Hannibal's invasion of Italy and his early victories against the Roman army. The second part covers selections from Books 22-30, which detail the later stages of the war and the eventual defeat of Hannibal. Livy's writing is known for its vivid descriptions and engaging storytelling, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Roman history or military strategy. This edition of the book was first published in 1913 and includes a preface by the editor, as well as notes and a glossary to aid readers in understanding the historical context and terminology used in Livy's work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
