Autor Si Sheppard Ilustrat de Christa Hook
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 iun 2009
A highly illustrated account of the decisive battle of the Third Roman Civil War. Octavian's victory led directly to the formation of the Roman Empire.

In 32 BC, the Roman Republic descended into civil war between the forces of the Octavian in the west and the famous lovers Cleopatra and Marc Antony in the East. Acting quickly, Octavian managed to trap his foes in the Gulf of Actium. In the ensuing battle, Anthony and Cleopatra manage to escape, but their military forces and their hopes for victory in the war were crushed. Soon afterward, the lovers committed suicide, and Octavian dissolved the republic and declared himself Emperor.

Actium has remained one of the most famous battles of the ancient world thanks to Shakespeare and Hollywood. This up-to-date book tells the true story of the decisive and bloody battle that would once and for all seal the fate of the Roman Republic.
