Sobre este artículo

UsedGood. Red cloth boards with gilt illustration on cover and spine. No copyright date given, but gift inscription on inside page dated 1890. Page edges likely once gilted, but now a dull brown. Scuffing and shelfwear with age, gilt illustrations beginning to fade, but still visible. Spine cracked, binding slightly cocked. Staining to a few page edges, but mostly clean. Text unmarked. Good copy overall.

Sinopsis

From Rome's historical contention with Carthage, the legendary military general Hannibal emerged to do battle at Trebia, Lake Trasimenus, Cannae, and almost conquer Rome. When Carthage herself was under Rome's attack, she sustained bad faith and excessive ferocity. Hannibal began an incredible journey across the Alps, bringing an army with cannons and elephants to overpower the great Roman empire. He confronted the rallied forces who rose up to defend Rome plus those he had earlier subjugated that were coalescing an insurgency against him. During the time this problematic legendary story occurs, a relative of Hannibal, a boy named Malchus, joins in Carthage's march against Rome. Malchus has an unsullied energy that allows him to escape attacks from lions and wolves while employing the use of a raft to maneuver through Carthage's subterranean reservoir. Even though Carthage is eventually defeated, the clashes are thrilling enough and the dilemmas vexing enough to gain a reader's undivided attention.Please Note: This book has been reformatted to be easy to read in true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher. The Microsoft eBook has a contents page linked to the chapter headings for easy navigation. The Adobe eBook has bookmarks at chapter headings and is printable up to two full copies per year.
