Description

The story unfolds against a background of wars, financial tangles, shifting foreign policy, and personal rivalries.

Sir Frank finds the secret of Roman power in the dignity of its great men and the liberty of the small.

Though centuries have elapsed since the Caesars, we need not look far to discover in our own day the same conflicts between personal ambition and the dream of peace with dignity that consumed Rome.

This book underscores the fragility of all political institutions, including our own.
