Fulminata reviewed Legionary by Philip Matyszak
Review of 'Legionary' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
A very readable look at the life of an Imperial Roman soldier. The author uses the conceit that the book is being written as a manual for a new legionary, but doesn't allow that conceit to keep him from pointing out interesting details just because they are anachronistic (such as a legion constructed bridge leaving remnants until the 20th Century).
