Edge of Empire
#1
Edge of Empire Rome's Frontier on the Lower Rhine

By Jona Lendering & Arjen Bosman

ISBN 978-94-90258-05-4

Published by Karwansary of Ancient Warfare fame. I am surprised not to see this mentioned on here before now given the involvement of several RATers. I received my copy last week as I produced some illustrations for it, along with Johnny Shumate and Jose' Antonio German.

It was a pleasure to do the work and I am proud to have been involved with its production as it is a very attractive book. In particular I really enjoyed working on the Velsen reconstruction as it made a nice change from the majority of my work these days which is figure oriented. It was also quite a shock to receive a copy literally only days after finishing the artwork and sending it off. I hope the book is successful.

My copy is somewhere in route - hopefully it will make it to me here in the USA without misshap. I received notice that they were shipping two weeks ago.

Absolutely, mea culpa, was getting to that etc etc.. Thanks for bringing it to the attention of the forum, it's a great book with very good pictures and some beautiful artwork.
