In the late 3rd century B.C., the Romans, undisputed masters of Italy, faced their first great national crisis. The Punic Wars pit the burgeoning Roman Republic against Carthage, then the Mediterranean's dominant power. In the wake of Hannibal's unprecedented crossing of the Alps into Italy with an army of elephants, the Roman people placed their fate-and supreme power-in the hands of a young consul named Scipio Africanus. Will that decision lead to triumph or ruin?
