Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0198143273, Hardcover)

This now-classic work seeks to place Tacitus in his social and political context. Syme not only analyzes in detail Tacitus's writings, their development and style, but also his political career, using his progress through government to illustrate the process that brought new men from the western provinces to success and primacy at Rome.
