Adrian Keith Goldsworthy

Tells the story of the heir to the murdered Julius Caesar who, as Rome's first emperor, brought peace and stability to the empire and presided over a new system of government

From Revolutionary to Emperor

Augustus

The story of a teenage boy who, through intelligence, family name and also luck, reshaped the future of an empire during civil war and cemented his authoritarian rule and those coming after him for the next several centuries.

Sometimes I think real events make up the most incredible stories. Like this one.

The writing style of Goldsworthy keeps one always wanting for more and at an enjoyable depth of the topic, which cannot be said for every other author covering such a topic.
