- Kort biografi
- Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus, commonly referred to simply as Vegetius, was a writer of the Later Roman Empire. Nothing is known of his life or station beyond what he tells us in his two surviving works: Epitoma rei militaris (also referred to as De Re Militari), and the lesser-known Digesta Artis Mulomedicinae, a guide to veterinary medicine.

Vegetius: Epitome of Military Science (Translated… af N. P. Milner
A fascinating 5th century reference book with plenty of interesting information regarding how the Romans waged war and kept their military organized and trained.
Another copy of Vegetius which is easy to read and pretty clear. Good that analysis with the text points out that Vegetius was looking backwards into Roman history and was not really talking about the army of his time (which bore little resemblance to the army of Augustus).
Considered one of the most important military treatise from Roman times to the nineteenth century, Provides a detailed account of Roman Army with an abreviated book on the Roman Navy. Wish I had read this book in my earlier years as it would have been a constant reference source and used as an object of discussion during my military service.
