The Hunt for Julius Caesar’s Assassins Marked the Last Days of the Roman Republic
A new page-turning history details the events that led to the deaths of many of the conspirators
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

Thanks Min. Good article. I'll check with the local library to see if the book is available to borrow.
