About this listen

Here is a major new recording and the riveting account of Ancient Rome in all its madness and debauchery.

The politics of empire-building and the hypocrisies, back-stabbings, and corruptions of Rome's first family come to light. First published in 1934, the book retains a marvelously modern and often comic tone, and is written in the form of Claudius' autobiography. This is gripping stuff, read by one of our finest actors, who also starred as Claudius in the classic television series.

I have read the book many times and I have listened to a previous audiobook Jacobi did when he was younger. His voice is still great but the constant unnecessary violins every 5 minutes ruined what should have been a perfect experience. They add nothing to the pace of the story. I wish they could be edited out. I have the sequel to read so I expect the have mucked that up as well.
