Summary:
From the writer of the captivating bestseller
THE FIRST Guy IN ROME…
the timeless saga of power, enthusiasm
and conflict of Old Rome continues…
The wonderful glory of Republican Rome is threatened whenever a struggle for power erupts among the men who shaped its hard-won peace. At its middle are two incredible leaders: Gaius Marius, the general who preserved Rome from Barbarian invasions, frantically trying to increase his reign for a prophesied and unprecedented seventh term as Consul; and Lucius Cornelius Sulla, once Marius’ many trusted right-hand man, now a dangerous rival starving for his personal taste of politics success.
As the two men fight for position, they may be surrounded by a fresh era of statesman, military and fans, from Senate intriguers and their ambitious wives to the kid of destiny, Gaius Julius Caesar.
An absorbing story of the Republic fighting because of its success in an environment of treachery, barbarism and never-ending war, The Lawn Crown is a remarkable access in Colleen McCullough’s outstanding and unprecedented series on the rise and fall of the world’s best civilization.
