''Masterful ... a breathtaking panorama of Roman politics at a crucial turning point in history'' Simon J. V. Malloch, Literary Review
He was named son and heir by a murdered dictator. He came to Rome with nothing, surrounded by ruthless enemies. Yet Augustus would become the first Roman Emperor, transforming the Republic into the greatest empire the world had seen. This is the definitive biography of the man who changed Western history.
