  • "An English translation of Tacitus's "The Annals of Imperial Rome" which chronicles the history of Rome from A.D. 14 through the death of Nero in A.D. 68."@en
  • "Tacitus' Annals of Imperial Rome recount the major historical events from the years shortly before the death of Augustus up to the death of Nero in AD 68. With clarity and vivid intensity he describes the reign of terror under the corrupt Tiberius, the great fire of Rome during the time of Nero, and the wars, poisonings, scandals, conspiracies and murders that were part of imperial life. Despite his claim that the Annals were written objectively, Tacitus' account is sharply critical of the emperors' excesses and fearful for the future of Imperial Rome, while also filled with a longing for its past glories."@en
  • "Tacitus was considered by many to be the greatest of all Roman historians. This is a excellant translation, a brilliant writer he brings his characters very much to life with much personal detail."
