Nope, as far as I know, none of Jona's books has been published in English so far. On the other hand, this one is out-of-print anyway and you could hardly find a copy.

OK, the source he quotes is Florus? Which century did he write in? I have not read any translations of his work I am afraid.

I found an english translation by E.S. Fortster

Quote:As for the standards and eagles, the barbarians possess two to this day; the third eagle was wrenched from its hole, before it could fall into the hands of the enemy, by the standard-bearer, who, carrying it concealed in the folds round his belt, secreted himself in the blood-stained marsh
