Built on a belief system emphasising stealth, surprise, swift manoeuvre and force, the Byzantine infantryman was trained in survival, sword, spear and archery techniques and also land and sea combat. This book details the everyday experience of the infantryman from his recruitment, through his training regime to his encounters with his enemies.
