The Greek heavy infantry spearmen, or hoplites, are one of the most recognizable types of ancient warrior and their tightly-packed phalanx formation dominated the battlefield.

His clear, informative text is beautifully illustrated with dozens of color photographs showing how the equipment was worn and used.
