a brilliant, staggering expose of what Parenyi he refers to as “gentleman’s history,” or history told by the victors, the powerful, the owners of capital. He sheds a light on the facts of Caesar’s assassination, and how it was entirely tied to his efforts to improve the lives of the poor, the working class, the Forgotten and maligned of rome.
