THE BEST TRANSLATION OF DE RE MILITARI, VEGETIUS (OFFICIAL EDITION)


There  are a few translations of De Re Militari by Vegetius but most of them are incomplete without the 4th part about sieges and battles at sea. The official edition we bring you here today is both complete with all the chapters and the best translation we could find out there, performed by academics from different institutions.

De Re Militari is the most important book about Western Military Strategy. The teachings it shows were adopted by the armies that came afterwards to organize themselves, train recruits, and conduct warfare in many different battles in history. The military institutions of the Romans are fascinating, and this work is incredibly relevant for historians, strategists, and warfare enthusiasts.
