Story
Caesar Augustus's story, one of the most riveting in western history, is filled with drama and contradiction, risky gambles and unexpected success. He began as a teenage warlord, whose only claim to power was as the heir of the murdered Julius Caesar. Mark Antony dubbed him "a boy who owes everything to a name," but in the years to come the youth outmaneuvered all the older and more experienced politicians and was the last man standing in 30 BC.

Tracing the extraordinary trajectory of Julius Caesar's life, Adrian Goldsworthy covers not only the great Roman emperor's accomplishments as charismatic orator, conquering general, and powerful dictator but also lesser-known chapters. Ultimately, Goldsworthy realizes the full complexity of Caesar's character and shows why his political and military leadership continues to resonate some 2,000 years later.

Story
In AD 200, the Roman Empire seemed unassailable, its vast territory accounting for most of the known world. By the end of the fifth century, Roman rule had vanished in Western Europe and much of northern Africa, and only a shrunken Eastern Empire remained. This was a period of remarkable personalities, from the philosopher-emperor Marcus Aurelius to emperors like Diocletian, who portrayed themselves as tough, even brutal, soldiers.

Dynasty tells the story of Rome's first dynasty of emperors, from its establishment by Augustus Caesar in the last decades of the first century BC to its final, florid extinction less than a century later. The line of autocrats known to historians as the 'Julio-Claudians' remains to this day a byword for depravity. The brilliance of its allure and the blood-steeped shadows cast by its crimes still haunt the public imagination.

Story
The Roman empire shaped the culture of the Western world against which all other great powers are compared. Stretching from the north of Britain to the Sahara, and from the Atlantic coast to the Euphrates, it imposed peace and prosperity on an unprecedented scale. However, the exception lay in the east, where the Parthian and then Persian empires ruled over great cities and the trade routes to mysterious lands beyond. This was the place Alexander the Great had swept through, creating a dream of glory and conquest which tantalized Greeks and Romans alike.

Millennium is a stunning panoramic account of the two centuries on either side of the apocalyptic year 1000. This was the age of Canute, William the Conqueror and Pope Gregory VII, of Vikings, monks and serfs, of the earliest castles and the invention of knighthood, and of the primal conflict between church and state. The story of how the distinctive culture of Europe - restless, creative and dynamic - was forged from out of the convulsions of these extraordinary times is as fascinating and as momentous as any in history.

Story
The story of Napoleon has been written many times. In some versions, he is a military genius, in others a war-obsessed tyrant. Here, historian Adam Zamoyski cuts through the mythology and explains Napoleon against the background of the European Enlightenment and what he was himself seeking to achieve. This most famous of men is also the most hidden of men, and Zamoyski dives deeper than any previous biographer to find him. Beautifully written, Napoleon brilliantly sets the man in his European context.

The Roman Republic was one of the most remarkable achievements in the history of civilization. After its founding in 509 BCE, the Romans refused to allow a single leader to seize control of the state and grab absolute power. The Roman commitment to cooperative government and peaceful transfers of power was unmatched in the history of the ancient world. But by the year 133 BCE, the republican system was unable to cope with the vast empire Rome now ruled.

Story
Following Caesar’s assassination and Mark Antony’s defeat of the conspirators who killed Caesar, two powerful men remained in Rome—Antony and Caesar’s chosen heir, young Octavian, the future Augustus. When Antony fell in love with the most powerful woman in the world, Egypt’s ruler Cleopatra, and thwarted Octavian’s ambition to rule the empire, another civil war broke out. In 31 BC one of the largest naval battles in the ancient world took place—more than 600 ships, almost 200,000 men, and one woman—the Battle of Actium.
Written by: Barry Strauss
Publisher's Summary
The struggle between Rome and Carthage in the Punic Wars was arguably the greatest and most desperate conflict of antiquity. The forces involved and the casualties suffered by both sides were far greater than in any wars fought before the modern era, while the eventual outcome had far-reaching consequences for the history of the Western World, namely the ascendancy of Rome.
An epic of war and battle, this is also the story of famous generals and leaders: Hannibal, Fabius Maximus, Scipio Africanus, and his grandson Scipio Aemilianus, who would finally bring down the walls of Carthage.

Great summation of Hannibal Barca's time period
Even if you're only interested in Hannibal Barca, this broad examination of the Punic Wars is necessary. By seeing all sides of the conflict - you can truly understand the context the man existed in & appreciate his accomplishments. Can also pick up on subtle details about various cultures/people's of the time - who hold lessons for today. Because author has combined key elements of various primary sources...you get a good foundation. This makes you more confident in pursuing the primary sources on this subject (that can be heavy detailed - and possibly overwhelming if you don't have the foundation this book provides). Final note, despite British narrators being hard to understand sometimes - this one spoke clearly, had good flow, & an authoritative voice.

A good overview based on ancient sources
This is a solid introduction to the Punic Wars. It is firmly based in the ancient sources that survive, which are frequently referred to and evaluated for their reliability. If the present work focuses on battles at the expense of social and cultural considerations, the same is true of Livy and the other sources. Few details are too small for Goldsworthy’s scrutiny, and yet these nowhere hamper the narrative or cloud the big picture. The author is also to be commended for discussing all three Punic Wars together, as well as all the theatres of each war, in such a way that they do not become confused in the reader’s mind. Finally, this book is written for the educated public, and is readily accessible to that audience.
Perkins reads the book well, with a clear, natural and fluid style. His pronunciation of Greek and Latin words is inconsistent, however, and he even mistakes some English words, pronouncing ‘stades’, for example, as a disyllable. Notwithstanding these small errors, the quality of the reading is high, and still pleasant to the ear even after an hour or more of listening.

Captivating
This is about the Punic Wars (264BC –146BC) between Rome and Carthage. Much has been written about this epic ancient conflict. The result of the Punic Wars led to the ascendancy of Rome.
The book is well written and researched. Goldsworthy does write in an academic style of a historian, but is easily readable for a lay person like me. The author covers the three Punic Wars. (Punicus in Latin for Phoenician as Carthage was part of the old Phoenician Empire.) The book is strong on military history and techniques. Goldsworthy does a good job analyzing the cultural differences between Rome and Carthage. The author also explains about the Roman Army of the period and the Roman political system of the day. Goldsworthy does an excellent job explaining the factors that brought about the wars. I learned more about some key people of the time such as: Hannibal, Fabius Maximus and lastly Scipio Aemilianus. If you would like to know about the Punic Wars this book will provide a good understanding of the Wars. I enjoyed reading about the ancient history.
The book is sixteen hours and twenty-six minutes. The well-known British audiobook narrator Derek Perkins does an excellent job. Perkins has won the Audie Award and many Earphone Awards for audiobook narrations. He also narrates in the following languages: Russian, French and Welsh as well as in English.

Many battles but why?
This is a comprehensive review of the Punic wars based on scant source material - mainly Livy's History of Rome and Polybius's account. For those who have read those works there is not much new here. It's nice to have the whole history in one book. However, near the end I was tired of yet another battle followed by massacres and enslavement of the losers, including the civilian population.
Why did the Punic wars happen? Because there are no Carthaginian sources, the history of the Punic wars survives only in the Roman victors' accounts. And the Romans made no secret of their loathing of the Carthaginians, an ethnically and culturally different people with foreign traditions and practices.
It's pretty clear though that the Punic Wars were started by the Romans with their attacks on Tarentum and Sicily and conducted and concluded in a brutal manner. The Punic merchants were not very expansionist and would probably have coexisted peacefully with the Romans.
Dr. Goldsworthy discusses the causes of the wars only very briefly if at all.

incredible
A true masterpiece! Goldsworthy is the rare contemporary historian who seeks to present a balanced and accurate view of antiquity through robust research and exemplary scholarship. This comprehensive gem should be mandatory reading for modern purveyors of partisan revisionism, masquerading as historians (i.e. Bettany Hughes et. al).

Monumental Scholarship...
Made more excellent by the confessions up front with the questions posited. Goldsworthy is one of those increasingly rare historians who admits a great deal of what he presents depends upon sources that are either suspect or very limited. He resists the temptation to arrive at a conclusion that might fit his own agenda (or worse, some politically correct “truth”) and, instead, just presents the “facts” with appropriate qualifications. Not to say this is a dry report. Far from it. He clearly loves his subject, writes with verve and enthusiasm, and presents the more or less unknown with the accepted facts, rendering a historical packet as a complete whole. Excellent!

A Must Read
If anyone is interested in military life service...this book is a must read.
Students will draw from the Punic Wars how to understand what the early life in Rome and through out the empire was a way of life. It opens the eyes to the present day people that you might have to pick up a weapon in order to be free.
Those who failed honor the sword became slaves or fertilizer. It was a very rough period and why books are written about it.

Best account of Punic Wars I have read.
I was generally familiar with the Punic Wars, but this book contains a wealth of information that was new to me. These concern details of the major and many minor battles, the respective armies and navies of the belligerents, their principal and a number of subordinate commanders, governments, and overall political cultures.
