Praetorian

By: Simon Scarrow
Location: FIC SCA
Genre: Roman

The Praetorian Guard (Latin: PRÆTORIANI) was a force of bodyguards used by Roman Emperors. Before being appropriated for the use of the Emperors' personal guards, the title was used for the guards of Roman generals, at least since the rise to prominence of the Scipio family around 275 BC. The Guard was dissolved by Emperor Constantine I in the fourth century AD.

Simon Scarrow does it again- Roman History turned into great stories!!
