description: The twelve Caesars of ancient Rome (Julius Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, Nero, Galba, Otho, Vitellius, Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian) form a fabulous series. The themes of countless legends, these men were infamously depicted in Suetonius's Lives of the Caesars as strange at best and hideously villainous at worst. Delving into the personalities of these rulers, classical historian Michael Grant attempts to sort fact from rumor and to determine how each of these men used their unlimited authority. Black-and white illustrations.
