Query: Brief

I have some knowledge of Roman history, so this book fell a bit short. If you are looking for a quick overview, it is probably OK. However, on several points I questioned it factual accuracy. For example, the Cicero I have read about lived in the first century BC, not the first century AD. Since this correspond with the transition between Republican and Imperial Rome, this distinction is critical.
