Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. xix, [1], 385, [7] pages. Includes two black and white maps (one of the Roman Empire in 44 BC, and one of Cicero's Italy). Author's Note. Dramatis Personae. Glossary. Signed first edition sticker (with some wear) on front of DJ. DJ has slight wear to edges. Signed… by the author on the second free end paper. Robert Dennis Harris (born 7 March 1957) is an English novelist. He is a former journalist and BBC television reporter. Although he began his career in non-fiction, his fame rests upon his works of historical fiction. Beginning with the bestseller Fatherland, Harris focused on events surrounding the Second World War, followed by works set in ancient Rome. His most recent works centre on contemporary history. Harris was educated at Selwyn College, Cambridge, where he was president of the Union and editor of the student newspaper Varsity. Harris's first book appeared in 1982. A Higher Form of Killing, a study of chemical and biological warfare, was written with fellow BBC journalist Jeremy Paxman. Other non-fiction works followed: Gotcha! The Government, the Media and the Falklands Crisis (1983), The Making of Neil Kinnock (1984), Selling Hitler (1986), an investigation of the Hitler Diaries scandal, and Good and Faithful Servant (1990), a study of Bernard Ingham, Margaret Thatcher's press secretary. Harris was a columnist for the Sunday Times, but gave it up in 1997. He returned to journalism in 2001, writing for the Daily Telegraph.[24] He was named "Columnist of the Year" at the 2003 British Press Awards. This book tells the story of the final fifteen years in the life of the Roman statesman Cicero, imagined in the form of a biography written by his secretary, Tiro. Whenever possible, the letters and speeches and descriptions of events have been drawn from the original sources. The central problem that this book presents is a timeless one: How to keep political freedom unsullied by personal ambition, vested interests, and the erosive effects of ceaseless, senseless foreign wars. Derived from a Kirkus review: Set during the last gasp of the Roman Republic, the final volume of Harris' Cicero trilogy chronicles the great Roman statesman's fateful encounters with both Julius and Augustus Caesar. Harris has written smart, gripping thrillers with settings as varied as England during World War II and the contemporary world of international finance, but his Cicero novels are of men of towering intellect and humanity-and in their visceral evocation of history. The first two books, Imperium and Conspirata, recounted events familiar only to classical history buffs-Cicero's rise from relative obscurity to become one of Rome's leading lawyers, orators, and writers and, in 63 B.C.E., getting the top job, consul. This third book starts with his exile after running afoul of Julius Caesar, the brilliant general whose dangerous ambition Cicero alone seems to grasp. The plot hurtles toward the most famous incident in all of Roman history-the assassination of Caesar. Cicero is not involved in the plot, but he assumes a major role in its aftermath as Mark Antony, an enemy, and Octavian (later Augustus), a young friend who is also Caesar's adopted son, vie for leadership of the empire. The book is charming as well as engrossing, largely due to the immensely likable person of Cicero, who is wise but not pedantic, moral but not sanctimonious, courageous but wary of the grandstanding of the martyr. In Harris' hands, the other principle actors emerge fully rounded: Cato, the uncompromising stoic; Pompey, brave but vainglorious; Crassus, greedy and self-serving; Brutus, whom Cicero feared "may have been educated out of his wits"; Julius Caesar, whose "success had made him vain, and his vanity had devoured his reason"; and Mark Antony, who "has all of Caesar's worst qualities and none of his best." Unfortunately for Cicero, his assessment of Octavian-"he's a nice boy, and I hope he survives, but he's no Caesar"-proves fatally wrong. First United Stat. Matt Buck (Jacket illustration), Neil Gower (Maps) (illustrator).
