Grant is a popularising author and his work is not too highly regarded. Of his works I have only read <i> The army of the Caesars</i>, which contains a number of inaccuracies and contains many dated views. For an introduction to the Roman army I would recommend reading L. Keppie's <i> The making of the Roman army</i>, <i> Roman warfare</i> by Goldsworthy or (read: <b> and</b>) Connolly's <i> Greece and Rome at war</i>.<br>
