The transformation of Rome
This magisterial work on the Roman republic and long,slow collapse over period of about 140 years is a magical read for anyone with an interest in Romes role in the ancient world.
It is an objective, yet very lively account of the great and the good in the republican period, aswell as pointing out much of issues, and many of the rogues an thieves that arose.
It is an essential read for those many readers of Roman generals and the wars in which they engage. For readers with an interest in Julius Caesar and Octavian and their conduct, their wars and their skills, I highly recomend this great analyses.
