Tyler Windham's Reviews > Hannibal

Just as in his classic work on Alexander the Great, Dodge against impresses, entertains, and captivates his audience with both his thorough detail and his narrative energy that, in this volume, takes the reader from Hannibal's early days fighting the rebellious tribes of the Iberian peninsula, to his daring (and almost reckless were it not so expertly done) crossing of the Alps, through all of his victories bearing testament to the Carthaginian general's near unmatched tactical prowess that shook the marble columns of Rome to their core. This is the definitive work on Hannibal's campaigns and for anyone interested in the man who inhabits the highest echelon of history's strategists, the Punic Wars, or in ancient/classical history in general should read this book!
