Aemilius Paullus (Routledge Revivals)

<i> <p>Aemilius Paullus: Conqueror of Greece</i> first published in 1988 aims to construct an accurate picture of this reknowned soldier and politician by scrutiny of the main sources - Livy Plutarch and Polybius (the last of whom worked under the direct patronage of Paullus). The author shows how each writer moulds a Paullus according to his own preconceptions and suggests that he may have been little more than a competent general and politician. </p>
