Patricians in the Roman Empire provides a glimpse into the day-to-day lives of ancient Rome?s ruling class. Emperors, senators, and generals wielded almost unimaginable power at the height of the empire, and their decisions shaped not just the people they ruled but the history of Rome. The book examines the consequences of that power, from the luxury of a patrician life to the power plays that could erase it all.
