Beschrijving

Bol In 63 BCE a boy named Gaius Octavius was born into a Rome that was tearing itself apart. Adopted in the will of his assassinated great-uncle, Julius Caesar, this frail, calculating teenager outplayed Rome's hardest politicians, crushed Mark Antony and Cleopatra at Actium in 31 BCE, and made himself the master of the Roman world. As Augustus, he ended a century of civil war, founded the Roman Empire, and ruled for over forty years - all while insisting he had merely "restored the Republic." This is the true story of how one patient, ruthless man invented one-man rule and made the world thank him for it - and an honest reckoning with the legend he so carefully built, including his own propaganda account of his reign.
