After Julius Caesar’s assassination, the young Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa binds his fortunes to his friend Octavian. Soldier, admiral and organiser, Agrippa becomes the practical force behind Octavian’s survival against Caesar’s assassins, Sextus Pompey, Mark Antony and Cleopatra.
Looking back at fifty, Agrippa records the wars and political bargains that transformed Octavian into Augustus. His memoir confronts the friendship and inequality between the ruler who received the glory and the commander whose victories made the new regime possible.
