Reviews
“[A] well-researched and fascinating study.”--CHOICE
“Leads to a bold rethinking of the early Republican period.”--American Historical Review
“Present[s] a balanced and innovative argument. The scale and detail of his analyses are impressive, and the conclusions he reaches will repay careful reflection.”--Michigan War Studies Review
“Drogula has mastered a vast array of ancient and modern literature and his overarching vision of provincial command as a fluid and complex concept that developed over time is refreshing.”--Bryn Mawr Classical Review
“A lucid and well-argued examination of Roman commanders and their authority.... [Commanders and Command in the Roman Republic and Early Empire] also presents strong and welcome challenges to several basic assumptions about Roman magistrates and the concepts upon which their authority was grounded.”--H-Net Reviews
“Drogula’s erudite study constitutes an important and stimulating contribution on a major aspect of Roman Republican history which has long provoked debate.”--Journal of Roman Sudies
