Carthaginian Empire Volume I David Bowman

History is written by the winners, so, consider what might have been? If the Romans hadn't beaten the Carthaginians, it could have been a Carthaginian Empire we would have looked back on as the cradle of our civilisation and our laws. Now travel with me on a fascinating journey over the course of three volumes and fifteen hundred years as we watch the nascent Carthaginian Empire fight to grow, against those who would oppose it or strangle it at birth. Each volume in turn takes us through a formative period and, this, the first volume covers the initial expansion of Carthage from a City State on the shores of the Mediterranean to complete dominance of the Mediterranean basin and with it the rest of Europe. Starting in 470BC, and then spanning a breathtaking 400 years, we're right there as those who make the history of this Carthaginian Empire, struggle and grow into greatness.
