Dans cet ouvrage, il s’agit de montrer les soldats romains hors des camps militaires, occupés à des travaux de génie civil par des chefs soucieux de les arracher à l’oisiveté générée par les temps de paix. Ces travaux, qui contribuent à la romanisation des provinces, servent aussi des intérêts économiques, sociaux et politiques. Les différents types de travaux de génie civil sont ainsi passés à la loupe : construction et améliorations de routes, aménagements de pont, creusement de canaux et percement d’isthmes, construction d’aqueducs ou création de villes.. Le tout illustré par des aquarelles inédites de Jean-Claude Golvin.

The French invaded Algeria in 1830, and found a landscape rich in Roman remains, which they proceeded to re-use to support the constructions such as fortresses, barracks and hospitals needed to fight the natives (who continued to object to their presence), and to house the various colonisation projects with which they intended to solidify their hold on the country, and to make it both modern and profitable. Arabs and Berbers had occasionally made use of the ruins, but it was still a Roman and Early Christian landscape when the French arrived. In the space of two generations, this was destroyed, just as were many ancient remains in France, in part because “real” architecture was Greek, not Roman.
