Softcover. Zustand: As New. This surging narrative offers a brilliant synthesis of ancient sources, making it a must-read for anyone interested in history, politics, or human nature. Rome transitioned from kings to a republic, ultimately collapsing into civil wars so brutal that the populace welcomed an autocrat promising peace. Augustus, the "Divinely Favoured One," established a dynasty that continues to captivate with its unsettling characters.

It is a vivid portrayal of a family that transformed and stupefied Rome.…
