Historia de Las Guerras Punicas [Spanish]

By J Vilmont

For more than a century, two powers vied for control of the Mediterranean. Rome and Carthage. Empire and survival. Ambition and resistance. Between 264 and 146 B.C., the ancient world witnessed a total war that pitted not only armies against each other, but entire models of civilization. From the waters of Sicily to the eternal snows of the Alps; from the mines of Hispania to the burning walls of Carthage, the war knew no truce. Hannibal Barca crossed impossible mountains with war elephants. Rome was humiliated at Cannae. Scipio took the fight to Africa. And, in the end, a city was wiped from the face of the earth. But who really started the conflict? Was Carthage the aggressor... or Rome the instigator of a war sought for decades? Was Hannibal a visionary genius or the last defender of a doomed civilization? And what price did the ancient world pay for the ambition of universal domination? This book offers a compelling reexamination of the so-called Punic Wars--the true Hundred Years' War of antiquity--debunking inherited myths and giving a voice back to the vanquished. Because history is written by the victors... but the truth is often hidden among the ruins.
