The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them. If that is important to you, please call ahead or say so in the order comments! 

Tiberius Claudius Drusus Nero Germanicus lived from 10 B.C. to 54 A.D. Physically weak, a stammerer, Claudius was ignored. He survived because of his infirmities. Imagine his agenda when he became emperor! Written in the form of Claudius's autobiography, this book recounts the events of a scandalous era. Public morality deteriorated and corruption flourished. Barbarians found Rome ripe for the picking.
