Travel in the Later Roman Empire

[Caballo]

Thanks Vorti- I was just about to recommend Bryan's book as well! There is also a great (and free) podcast by him on the Oxford University Alumni Weekend series on ITunes U on the Fall of the Roman Empire. Well worth a listen. The economic impact on trade and the Roman free trade economy through the roads becoming tougher is (I think) often underestimated. Arguably an unforseen consequence of the mobile Field Army/ Limitanei strategy?
