I don't think I could recommend any better place to start than Peter Connolly's "Greece & Rome At War". Though the book is somewhat dated now it remains accessible and the level of scholarship highly respectable. This was the book that brought the ancient world, and in particular the Roman army, to life (for me). I'm sure there are others on this forum who will also have fond memories of Connolly's work.
Another good title that comes to mind is Goldsworthy's "The Complete Roman Army".
(Not to detract from other authors' works, but these were the first titles that came to mind.)
