'Highly recommended.' R. T. Ingoglia, Choice Magazine 'What Morstein-Marx attempts here is nothing less than a reset of earlier thinking about the end of the Republic and Caesar's role in its downfall.' Michael Fallon, Classics For All 'Morstein-Marx is a splitter, and an excellent one. His command of the details is marvelous. The book offers many powerful reinterpretations of oft-told tales, such as Caesar's march across the river that served as a boundary between Rome and its northern territories, the Rubicon.' Barry Straus, Claremont Review of Books 'You have to look elsewhere for a quick overview, because Morstein-Marx takes you into the depths of the rabbit hole. However, he conducts this discussion so comprehensively that it must be the starting point for further research. Instead of reading many works, the first address for a serious discussion of the late Roman Republic can now be found here.' Bastian Schenk, H-Soz-Kult
