Though he was Greek, Plutarch wrote his Lives in the first century, a world dominated by the Roman Empire.
Here he considers some of the major figures who had left their stamp on the history of Rome, including generals, rulers, philosophers and politicians.
It is the companion volume to Plutarch: The Greeks, also read with clarity and style by Nicholas Farrell.
