| | Scipio Africanus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A commission of inquiry was sent over to Sicily, and it found that Scipio was at the head of a well-equipped fleet and army. | | | Even after the last of these defeats at the hands of the Carthaginians, he was resolutely focused on securing Roman victory. | | | Skillful alike in strategy and in tactics, he had also the faculty of inspiring his soldiers with confidence. |

| | Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus (236-184) : Spain |
| | Scipio had with him around 35-40,000 men - his Roman troops reinforced by the crews of his ships (who were not needed at the moment), and perhaps some 10-15,000 Spanish auxiliaries. | | | The Carthaginians had camped on a small hill; Scipio now placed his camp on certain low hills opposing them, but in such a position as to cut of the Carthaginians from retreating to their base at Gades. | | | For the second assault which was launched late in the afternoon, Scipio brought up fresh troops; enough now to ensure that the whole landward side of the fortress would be under assault. |

| | Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus (236-184) : Youth |
| | Scipio's conduct in life leaves no reason to suggest that he was as coldly calculationg as Polybius believes. | | | Despite these successes of the Scipios, the policies of the Scipionic faction had been severely discredited by Cannae. | | | Polybius claims that this was merely an artifice to impress superstitious minds, but he wrote in a latter, more aetheistic hellenized age. |

| | The Baldwin Project: Hannibal by Jacob Abbott |
| | Scipio held up his sword, and in a very solemn manner pronounced an oath, binding himself not to abandon his country in this the hour of her distress, nor to allow any other Roman citizen to abandon her. | | | The courage, the energy, and the martial ardor which Scipio's conduct evinced, awakened a similar spirit in them, and made them hope again that possibly their country might yet be saved. | | | Instead of punishing them, Scipio ordered them to be led around his camp, and to be allowed to see every thing they desired. |

| | They were to inform Scipio that he had also made a formal alliance with Carthage, and it was his wish that the Romans should conduct their operations against Carthage at a distance from Africa as they had hitherto done. | | | This leads me to believe that when Masinissa came to Scipio it was with a small rather than with a large body of troops; the former would be much more suitable to the fortunes of an exile, the latter to those of a reigning prince. | | | Then he inspected the legions and picked out the men who had seen most service, particularly those who had been under Marcellus, as he considered that these had been trained in the best school, and after their protracted investment of Syracuse were thoroughly familiar with the methods of attacking fortified places. |
