Roman Body Armour by H & J Travis

[sonic]

I'd like to ask if the book covers the army of the Late Empire? A quick look through the synopsis etc. doesn't appear to answer the question.

How is the armour worn in the late empire any different to the armour discussed in this book?

That was the question I was hoping to have answered. Are there late variants or did the Late Romans simply use a standard pattern that survived from the earlier period? Was the armour manufactured in a different way or the same? Since the later armour may have been manufactured in the fabricae, is there evidence of uniformality or were there regional variations?

Questions like that.
