Jako historik a spisovatel se Lindsay Powell zaměřuje na odhalování méně známých osobností a událostí z historie. Jeho cílem je doplnit naše chápání minulosti tím, že dává hlas těm, kteří si to zaslouží. S vášní pro vojenskou historii Římské říše pátrá po příbězích ve starověkých dokumentech, nápisech, mincích i archeologických nálezech. Jeho práce využívá poznatky z archeologie, inženýrství, medicíny a vědy k odhalení hlubších pravd.

Shim'on (Simon) Bar Kokhba was a messianic figure who led the Jews to revolt against the Roman Empire in its prime.
Drusus the Elder (Nero Claudius Drusus) was regarded by the Romans as the first conqueror of Germania (western Germany) and a hero in the mold of Alexander the Great. Yet there has never been a full volume dedicated to his remarkable story, achievements and legacy. Eager for Glory brings this heroic figure back to life for a modern audience.
