A Brief History of the Private Lives of the Roman Emperors

With the recent success of `Rome` on BBC2, no one will look at the private lives of the Roman Emperors again in the same light. Anthony Blond`s scandalous expose of the life of the Caesars is a must-read for all interested in what really went on in ancient Rome. Julius Caesar is usually presented as a glorious general when in fact he was an arrogant charmer and a swank; Augustus was so conscious of his height that he put lifts in his sandals. But they were nothing compared to Caligula, Claudius and Nero. This book is fascinating reading, eye-opening in its revelations and effortlessly entertaining.
