By incorporating Sextus more centrally into the events of 49 to 36 BC, Welch's book provides new insight for our understanding of the civil war that dominated this period. … Welch’s conclusions will generate discussion and debate among historians, but her use of numismatic evidence and her analysis of the Republicans' naval tactics are very persuasive contributions to the literary material. -- Fred K. Drogula * BMCR *
