The life of the great military commander of ancient Carthage from
the bestselling author of Thermopylae and Gibraltar. Born in
Carthage in 247 BC, Hannibal Barca is considered one of the
greatest military commanders of all time. Following the example set
by his father, Hamilcar, he dedicated his life to the defeat of
Rome. At the outbreak of the Second Punic War, Hannibal famously
led an army across the Pyrenees and the Alps to victory against the
Romans at the Battle of Trebia. In the years that followed,
Hannibal led the Carthaginian war on Rome through some of the most
brutal and costly battles in recorded history. In this richly
detailed biography, Ernle Bradford tells the story of a great
leader whose military strategies have been studied and copied by
commanders throughout history, from his own Roman enemies to
Napoleon Bonaparte.
