srm's review against another edition

informative reflective medium-paced

4.5

A wonderfully unique view of ancient Rome, Beard doesn't write about each emperor individually, but examines what the job entailed, whoever happened to be ruling. The insights and information offered is riveting, and the writing, as always with Beard, is supremely readable.
