This book discusses Rome's effective political control of the Mediterranean during a relatively short but eventful period. From the Carthaginians in Spain, the Second Punic War, Rome's progressive power was traced through conquests in Gaul in the Alps, Spain and conflicts in west and east Africa with the Macedonians, the Seleucid Empire, and finally the Greeks. Interspersed with these themes are accounts of the Seleucids and the Greeks of Patria and India, internal Roman political life, and the development of Rome's relations with its Italian allies and neighbors.
