Book Synopsis Pompey, Cato, and the Governance of the Roman Empire by : Kit Morrell
Book excerpt: Leading Romans in the late republic were more concerned about the problems of their empire than is generally recognized. This book challenges the traditional picture by exploring the attempts made at legal and ethical reform in the period 70-50 BC, while also shedding new light on collaboration between Pompey and Cato, two key arbiters of change.
