The History of France, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The History of France, Vol. 1
Of the natural and well-known boundaries of the Roman province of Gaul, the Rhine was the most important. It was the great barrier which defended the empire from the errant tribes and nations that swarmed beyond. Wealth and civiliza tion were on one side of the stream; want and barbarism upon the other. Betwixt such neighbors the natural state is war. The disciplined legions of Rome, however, quelled the turbulence of the German tribes, penetrated far and at different intervals into their country, fully avenged one or two defeats, and long held their rude enemies in salutary awe.
