The surviving work of Aeneas (fourth century BCE) is on defense against siege. Asclepiodotus (first century BCE) wrote a work on tactics as though for the lecture room, based on earlier manuals, not personal experience. Onasander's "The General" (first century CE) deals with the qualities expected of a general.
With the Greekless reader firmly in mind, this text provides a fresh modern translation of Aineias Tacitus' "How to Survive Under Siege", a comprehensive introduction to Aineias and his work, and a full historical commentary.
