Book Reviews of The Fall of the Roman Republic: Six Lives (Penguin Classics)

Book Review: Plutarchs most dedicated biography
Summary: 5 Stars

Having purchased several of Plutarch's work as companions to study courses, I must say that this is the most thorough and accurate of his compiled works. There is always a certain degree of anecdote and humour to his work but these biographies of the six men responsible for the fall of the Roman Republic seems to be a more serious affair. A must for anyone interested in Rome and the rise of Caesar.
