Details

Drawing on historical sources and archaeological findings from the recent past, this book tells the story of the battle in the Teutoburg Forest in 9 AD, during which the Germans led by Arminius three Roman legions under the command of General Publius Quintilius Trapped and slaughtered Varus. As a result of this battle, the Romans gave up their plans to subdue the Germans and extend the empire to the River Elbe.
