Summary
The only surviving works from one of the world’s earliest historians, in important new translations Sallust’s first published work, Catiline’s War, contains the memorable history of the year 63, including his thoughts on Catiline, a Roman politician who made an ill-fated attempt to overthrow the Roman Republic.
