Book Summary

His full name was Tiberius Claudius Drusus Nero Germanicus.  He was considered the weakling and fool of the royal family, and yet he managed to survive the murderous intrigues of Augustus, Tiberius, and even his dangerously mad nephew, Caligula.  Then in 41 A.D. he was unexpectedly proclaimed Emperor of Rome by the Palace Guard.  Written in the form of his autobiography, I, Claudius stands as a genuine classic of 20th-century fiction, and the most convincing modern evocation of Imperial Rome ever written.
