The Roman Revolution is one of the most momentous periods of change in history, in which an imperial but quasidemocratic power changed into an autocracy. 

This book studies the way the Roman army changed in the last eighty years of the Republic, so that an army of imperial conquest became transformed into a set of rival personal armies under the control of the triumvirs. It emphasizes the development of what has often been regarded as a static monolithic institution, and its centrality to political change. 

Industry Reviews

'Keaveney has written an inspiring and fascinating book, that competently summarises current research about the final stages of the Roman Republic. It sheds new light upon many seemingly well-established concepts of the Roman army. The critical and convincing examination of ancient sources and modern research make it valuable for both experts and students of ancient history. The refreshingly eloquent diction makes this book a pleasure to read.' - Bryn Mawr Classical Review
