Sip slowly, like fine wine. Because it is.
This review is written for those who might initially be scared off, as I was, by the relative difficulty of Syme's writing.

A Masterpiece

Brilliant, but not the best choice for the general reader
An immensely scholarly work examining a very specific period of time -- namely the transition from Roman Republic to Roman Empire in the years following the murder of Julius Caesar in 44 BC.
