Cleopatra

written by: michael-grant

FIRST CASTLE BOOKS EDITION. 2004 Hardcover, Michael Grant (History of Rome). The distinguished historian and classicist Michael Grant confirms that her reputation as a temptress was well-founded. However, by unravelling the sources behind the tangle of myth, gossip and invention he shows that the popular image of a wayward woman opting for a life of sensuous luxury and neglecting her affairs of state is far from the truth. - Amazon
