Rezensionen
'This is a book which should be read by all students studying the fall of the Roman republic and the rise of the principate ... This book deserves to take its place alongside From the Gracchi to Nero as a fundamental student text on a crucial period of Roman history.' - Jonathan Eaton, JCT Review
