Germanicus : the magnificent life and mysterious death of Rome's most popular general
Powell, Lindsay2013
Books
Germanicus was regarded by many Romans as a hero in the mould of Alexander the Great. His untimely death, in suspicious circumstances, ended the possibility of a return to a more open republic and ambitions for the outright conquest of Germania Magna. This biography of Germanicus is in parts a growing-up story, a history of war, a tale of political intrigue and a murder mystery.
