Cleopatra's Kidnappers: How Caesars Sixth Legion Gave Egypt to Rome and Rome to CaesarA powerful tale of war, romance, and one of history's most desperate gambles Julius Caesar was nothing if not bold. When, in the wake of his defeat of Pompey at Pharsalus his victorious legions refused to march another step under his command, he pursued his fleeing rival into Egypt with an impossibly small force of Gallic and German cavalry, raw Italian recruits, and nine hundred Spanish prisoners of war tough veterans of Pompey's Sixth Legion.

A powerful tale of war, romance, and one of history's most desperate gambles

Julius Caesar was nothing if not bold. When, in the wake of his defeat of Pompey at Pharsalus his victorious legions refused to march another step under his command, he pursued his fleeing rival into Egypt with an impossibly small force of Gallic and German cavalry, raw Italian recruits, and nine hundred Spanish prisoners of war-tough veterans of Pompey's Sixth Legion.

Cleopatra's Kidnappers tells the epic saga of Caesar's adventures in Egypt through the eyes of these captured, but never defeated, legionaries. In this third volume in his definitive history of the Roman legions, Stephen Dando-Collins reveals how this tiny band of fierce warriors led Caesar's little army to great victories against impossible odds. Bristling with action and packed with insights and newly revealed facts, this eye-opening account introduces you to the extraordinary men who made possible Caesar's famous boast, ""I came, I saw, I conquered.""

Praise for Caesar's Legion

""A unique and splendidly researched story, following the trials and triumphs of Julius Caesar's Legio X. . . . More than a mere unit account, it incorporates the history of Rome and the Roman army at the height of their power and gory glory. Many military historians consider Caesar's legions the world's most efficient infantry before the arrival of gunpowder. This book shows why. Written in readable, popular style, Caesar's Legion is a must for military buffs and anyone interested in Roman history at a critical point in European civilization.""
-T. R. Fehrenbach author of This Kind of War, Lone Star, and Comanches

Works great for 6 months, then gets dull
Color: Gold &black
Worked very well initially. Easy to charge, no nicking or pulling. But after about 6-7 months it got noticeably less sharp, with only moderate use (once every couple of weeks). Now at about a year out from purchase it’s much harder to get a close trim. Currently debating whether to simply buy a new one of the same version or switch up brands. Bottom line if you want something cheap and dependable for 6 months, go for this. If you want something that lasts longer, maybe opt for a higher price point.

I love this 3-in-1 shaver! It comes with everything you need for face and body upkeep, including a lady shaver, an eyebrow trimmer, and a body/beard shaver attachment. It’s waterproof, charges quickly via USB, and even has a sleek LED display. The packaging is super cute too! Definitely a great all-in-one tool for daily routines. 10/10 recommend! It’s efficient, gentle on the skin, and feels like a luxury upgrade to a standard razor!

Smooth, painless, and perfect for travel!
Color: White
I’ve tried a few different bikini trimmers over the years, and this one is honestly one of my favorites. It’s super easy to use, doesn’t pull or irritate my skin, and leaves everything feeling smooth without razor burn. I love that it comes with multiple attachments so I can use it for my bikini area, underarms, and even quick touch-ups on my face. The display is a nice bonus because I can actually see the battery level, and the USB charging makes it really convenient for travel. It’s lightweight, waterproof, and easy to clean too. Overall, such a great tool for the price!

Beware of Bikini Trimming
Color: White
This shaver is very sharp, On dry skin it shaved my legs so close that it felt as if I had silky smooth legs as if I had used a high quality cream, almost slippery. My underarms however were a little sensitive to deodorant after. I must have misunderstood the description as I thought there was a brow trimmer accessory included, not, just the nose hair trimmer which is ok. Don't really need that, needed the brow trimmer. All this review put together makes me think this was made for men, or trans.
