The greatest ambush in history

This book offers a detailed account of the brilliant victory of Hannibal, a famous military leader of Carthage on the North African coast, in the Battle of Lake Trasimene against the Roman Empire on June 21, 217 B.C. This historical event is often overshadowed by Hannibal’s remarkable victory in the Battle of Cannae in 216 B.C. Therefore, Dr.Tucker has shed light upon this historical encounter, in which Hannibal executed one of the most epic and effective ambushes in history, leading to the complete destruction of a Roman army.
