Hannibal has always been the most famous member of the Barcid dynasty, which dominated Carthage and its empire in Africa and Spain in the latter half of the third century BC. Issues of politics and power, and other much debated problems of leadership, diplomacy and war during Carthage's greatest era, are interpreted in this book.

First book dedicated to Carthage's conflicts outside the 'Punic Wars' against Rome.

Beginning as Phoenician settlers in North Africa, the Carthaginians then broadened their civilization with influences from neighbouring North African people, Egypt, and the Greek world. This title reveals this complex, multicultural and innovative people whose achievements left an indelible impact on their Roman conquerors and on history.
