Thanks for the link. I'm going to go to the library today to look for some of the books on the amazon list. If I find anything in any of the books, I'll let you all know. I've always been fascinated by Belisarius. His abilities, strategies, and what he could have done had he been given the right soldiers and supplies. The world might have been completely different. It makes me sad how teachers never talk about him. They mention Julius Caesar and other generals though.
