About this ebook

This is the first ever study to assess Emperor Domitian from a psychological point of view and covers his entire career from the early years and the civil war AD through the imperial rule to the dark years and the psychology of suspicion. Pat Southern strips away hyperbole and sensationalism from the literary record, revealing an individual who caused undoubted suffering which must be accounted for.

An interesting biographical insight into one of the lesser known Caesars. For one looking for a different perspective of a Roman emperor, this is a great book. Very quick read.
