Description:
A masterful new translation of Suetonius' renowned biographies of the twelve Caesars, by the award-winning historian and The Rest Is History podcaster Tom Holland.




The ancient Roman empire was the supreme arena, where emperors had no choice but to fight, to thrill, to dazzle. To rule as a Caesar was to stand as an actor upon the great stage of the world. No biographies invite us into the lives of the Caesars more vividly or intimately than those by Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus, written from the centre of Rome and power, in the early 2nd century AD.




By placing each Caesar in the context of the generations that had gone before, and connecting personality with policy, Suetonius succeeded in painting Rome's ultimate portraits of power. The shortfalls, foreign policy crises and sex scandals of the emperors are laid bare; we are shown their tastes, their foibles, their eccentricities; we sit at their tables and enter their bedrooms. The result is perhaps the most influential series of biographies ever written.




That Rome lives more vividly in people's imagination than any other ancient empire owes an inordinate amount to Suetonius. Now award-winning author and translator Tom Holland brings us even closer in a new, spellbinding translation. Giving a deeper understanding of the personal lives of Rome's first emperors, and of how they swayed the fates of millions, The Lives of the Caesars is an astonishing, immersive experience of a time and culture at once familiar and utterly alien to our own.

Luxury Soft Faux CHINCHILLA Fur
Color: Birch Mink, Size: 60"x80"
The softest fur in the world comes from chinchillas, which have fur that is 30 times softer than human hair. Other notably soft furs include those from mink and angora rabbits. So after much consideration, I ordered the FAUX CHINCHILLA fur throw and absolutely love love love it. I actually purchased it as a house warming present for a friend, but somehow ended up receiving two and I kid you not it is the best mistake I ever made next to matrimony. My honest opinion is to ignore all the nonsense gobbledygook reviews and focus on the winners like the one written by Macy. Yes it's heavy and I'll probably have it professionally cleaned when the time comes, but folks I kid you not it is the softest, prettist and most impressive throw I've experienced to date. As others recommended... buy it, wrap it around your body and experience just how incredibly delightful it really is!!!

Wonderful, super soft but very heavy.
Color: Champagne Fawn, Size: 60"x80"
Very well-made very soft easy to clean. The only bad thing is it is so heavy. It’s like a super weighted blanket. It will keep you warm on the coldest of nights that’s guaranteed, but it’s really really heavy. Other than that. I absolutely love it. I use it as a comforter on my bed.

Gorgeous Blanket
Color: Smoky Sable, Size: 60"x80", Color: Smoky Sable, Size: 60"x80"
Beautiful smoky sable brown. It’s wonderfully soft and fluffy. It’s kind of a unique color of brown and it’s made very well. Quality item. Could be used for all seasons since it has the fur on one side and the smooth velvet on the back which is not too hot in warmer months. The first one I ordered had a strange oily spot on it but the seller was very kind gave me a refund and sent me another one for free. Definitely recommend the product and the seller! The fur looks lighter in my pictures. It’s actually a good bit darker than what is depicted.
