For those interested in the enemies of Rome, there is a new book from Osprey entitled "The Sarmatians" due out in August. I believe it will be a Men-At-Arms title.<br>
<br>
Osprey books tend to be of variable quality (often quite excellent or real dog rockets), but this one is being written by Mariusz Mielczarek, the author of "Cataphracti and Clibanarii: Studies on the heavy armoured cavalry of the ancient world," a crucial work on the subject, as well as the more recent "The Army of the Bosporan Kingdom," which i have not yet read, though I hear it's also first-rate.<br>
