From the dust jacket:

In a time before Caesar, before Augustus, Nero or Constantine, before the Gallic Wars or the conquest of Britain, in a time before its place in the history of the Western world was assured. He was a man celebrated and feared like few historical figures, a man known for millennia by a single name: Hannibal.

The wars fought between Hannibal's Carthage and the Roman Republic have fascinated the world for thousands of years. The stuggle shaped the destiny of nations and established the fame or infamy of a host towering figures, none more so than Hannibal himself, the driving force of what became known as the Second Punic War (218-202BC), and Publius Scipio, the young Roman general who eventually proved his nemesis.

As he chronicles this titanic struggle through the actions of individual characters - from the genius, ambition and tragedies of Hannibal and Scipio themselves to their princes, generals and foot soldiers, lovers and wives - David Anthony Durham brings ancient history to brilliant, vivid life. Epic in scope and vision, PRIDE OF CARTHAGE is a glorious and unforgettable novel and unbridled excitement.
