Relying on a variety of literary, documentary and archaeological
sources, this work explores the Roman military supply system from
the Punic Wars to the end of the Principate. Each chapter is
devoted to a different aspect of logistics: supply needs and
rations; packs, trains and military servants; foraging and
requisition; supply lines; sources of supply; administration; and
the impact of logistics on Roman warfare. As a whole the book
traces the development of the Roman logistics into a highly
sophisticated supply system - a vital element in the success of
Roman arms. In addition, it makes a critical study of important
technical questions of Roman logistics, such as the size of the
soldier's grain ration, the function of military servants, and the
changes in logistical management under the Republic and Empire.
