Summary

Though he was Greek, Plutarch wrote his Lives in the first century, a world dominated by the Roman Empire. Here he considers some of the major figures who had left their stamp on the history of Rome, including generals, rulers, philosophers, and politicians. These unabridged selections focus on Coriolanus, Pompey, Caesar, Cicero, Brutus, and Mark Antony.

Plutarch brings the Romans to life

Plutarch's lively writing and depth of research make this an absorbing and informative work. Farrell's narration is clear and well-paced.
