I, Claudius

by Robert Graves

Review of I, Claudius by Robert Graves

      When I read I, Claudius, I thought it was just OK.  About a year later the series ROME came out and I really got into it.  I later went back and read Claudius The God, also by Robert Graves, and enjoyed it quite a bit. 

      Both books are told in an autobiographical manner by the emperor Tiberius Claudius Drusus Nero Germanicus writing his memiors.  The 2 books together follow Claudius from his childhood through his rise to the throne and his death. 

      If you are into roman history at all I think you will like these two books although I dont really know if the Claudius books required a lot of research or a lot of imagination to write.
