In 9 AD, three Roman legions under the commander Publius Quinctilius Varus are lured into an ambush set by Germanic tribes and completely routed - a severe blow to the Imperium Romanum and its expansionist efforts in Germania. This volume offers a competent overview of the prehistory and course of the Varus catastrophe as well as of the written and archaeological evidence that bears witness to this historically momentous event.
